3rd baby?
I have a 4 year old and a 2 year old and seriously considering a third baby. Husband wants another too, I’m just scared of financial strain and house space lol. I know we will never regret a baby we have but may regret not having another.
Any mums with 3 littles- how are you finding it?

My husband and I felt the same...but now being a mom of three (6yr, 4yr, and 9m) I'm so happy we did! My older two are obsessed with the baby and watching them all play, interact and cuddle is the best feeling. As for cost/space...we had to make some cuts, and lifestyle changes. It can be tight at time, but we are making it work.
It’s a lifestyle choice lol. It’s literally all I have time for. 3 is too many for anyone to regularly babysit so we have no couple time. Someone is always sick, or needs something. It’s a lot. Absolutely wouldn’t change it for the world though.
Expecting our third and we are done after this! I feel like most people say while it's challenging because kids are obviously a lot of time and effort-they're well worth it if you're well supported and have the emotional capacity to navigate that journey again. Start with a budget and save up whatever you think is manageable for a few months to get an idea of how things might shift and where you might need to work it out if you want to 'prepare' for that transition, but hopefully reusing baby supplies helps get you some part of the way there and you don't need extra bells and whistles. Whatever y'all decide, I hope you don't let fear guide you and can focus on what's in your control to make adjustments and feel ready whatever comes your way 💜
