I am blessed with 2 beautiful children, we don't want to rule out having another baby. If we have another one is gonna have to be soon as my husband is getting on abit (37) but we can't come to a decision. I don't want to make our family hard work and i'm worried if they'll be enough love to go round for the whole family.

What's it like having 3 kids?

and how do you know having another baby is going to be right for you?

Of course you'll have enough love to go around! If that was the case, we would only have one, but we naturally love our own babies, no matter how many we have.

It's fine having 3 children, even fine having 4, and it's not much more work than 2. Going from no children to having one child is the biggest change.
If you can't get the urge to have another baby away, then it will be right to have another baby.
Good luck , whatever you decide.

No matter how many kids you have, you will always have enough love to go round.
There are plenty of us here with 3 or more kids and as Audrey said going from none to one is a huge shock and from one to two can be challenging, but two to three is a breeze! Although going from one to three will be an eye opening as Fi will find out soon enough :lol:

Having 3 is lovely. It was hard at first cos of how close together mine are (just under 4 years difference between the eldest & youngest) so it was a bit of a shocker trying to get them all dressed & sorted ready for the school run in the morning. But, as with anything, you manage, you get used to it, you adapt & you get into a routine. Now it's just normal for me to have 3 & I couldn't imagine it any other way :D I love how close they are, how they play together & everything. They do fight sometimes, but whether you have 2, 3 or 10 would make no difference to that! :lol: :lol:

As for the love thing, I was more concerned about that when i was having my 2nd, but as soon as he was born I knew I needn't have worried & it's the same with the 3rd. You don't have a certain amount of love that you are born with & it has to be shared out... you just gain more love for another little human being with each baby you have! <3

I love being a mom of 3 boys & I wouldn't have it any other way :D
