Me, Oh My! Baby #3!!!! - Woodland,CA

Keep a sense of humor. Mine were: newborn, 1yo, 2yo and 3yo. Yep you
are reading that right. If I had to do over again would do it the same way.
We loved it and planned them close. Did we ever think I was that fertile, no,
but worked out great. Now all grown, married with their own!!!!! I am still
alive!!!

My advice-enjoy every minute of it-because it will evaporate before your eyes-oh-consider yourself sprinkled! xoxoxo!

Congrats!! I'll cross my fingers for a girl

Congrats. I am so happy for you :) As sone would say, doing the baby dance.

Congrats and sprinkle... sprinkle!

Mine's are 2.5, 4.5 and 5.5.
I enjoyed them that close. They fight as any siblings do,but are VERY close to each other. It was hard at first but as time went on it got easy.
People look at us also like we were crazy. Kept hearing the same stories over about,"You know what causes a baby?" Lol. I think I do. :)

Congrats!!

Aaaaw, congratulations! Such happy news. Jsyk, I had two boys too before Margaret was born.
When the ultrasound tech said 'It looks like a girl' my husband and I said 'Are you sure?!' at the same time. So it CAN happen. But if it doesn't, you will be The Queen, that's for damn sure!

:)
I've got three, 19, 17, almost 15. It all works out, no worries!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

I happen to have my children really close together and I'm so very grateful for that. My 3rd was unplanned, but looking back, I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. I popped out 3 kids in a L. less than 3 years :) I had a 2 yo a 1 yo and an infant, people looked at us like we were crazy....probably because we WERE GOING CRAZY!

Basically, we had two really difficult years but after that it was smooth sailing. Now that they are older life is a breeze, (relatively speaking)! They are all best friends!

That sounds like me! I had two boys, then #3 came along (GIRL!) when they were that same age (3.5 and almost 2).

I won't lie - when I look back on those first two years of my daughters life, it was kind of crazy. Take LOTS of photos... it will help you remember it all :)

I bought a sit and stand stroller (used - a local Mamasource/Mamapedia mom saw a question I had about them and offered hers up for $50). I would often push all 3 of them on it, the baby in her carseat clicked in the front, the toddler on the seat and my 3 year old standing. It was the best $50 I spent on baby gear.

Other than that, my advice is sleep when you can. Try not to stress the small stuff. Take help when offered :)_

Well mine are 6,4,and almost 2 and it's a blast! Have fun :) Yes some days are hard, and some days you want to throw in the towel but they are worth all the good days!

I don't have any words of wisdom for you, just wanted to say congrats!

My oldest boy was 4 yrs 1 month old, and my second son was 29 months old when their L. sister was born. My advice is to just go with it. It will all work out, craziness and all! The kids are now 6 (almost 7), 5, and 2 (almost 3). We are getting out of the "baby stage", and things are getting easier, but there are definitely things I miss. We knew this was our last one going into the pregnancy, so I really tried to appreciate it all and just live it and enjoy it.
One word of advice from MY mom (who has 2 big brothers close in age): she has about 2 pictures of herself growing up! Take pictures of the baby (including lots of ones without the big brothers!), document all the exciting moments, etc. I haven't been good about following that bit of advice - I have some serious catching-up to do in my daughter's baby book! Congrats and Blessings to you!!! Girl or boy, this L. one will be loved. But here's some pink princess sparkle dust, just for good measure! :)

Congrats!!!! What an exciting time in your life!!!!!
