Going from 2 to 3?

Question

Hi! I really feel like having a third kid but husband is not on board because he feels like he does not have the energy to handle 3. We have a 4 year old and a 14 month old. I understand his reasons but I can't get excited about just remaining a family of 2 kids. Any thoughts? What was it like going from 2 to 3 kids?

Answer

Like the others said, going from 2 to 3 is so much easier then 1 to 2. I have 3 kids, and they are 2.5 years apart. 5, almost 3, and 5 months. The older two play together and help me. I get a lot of one on one time with the baby, more so then I did with me 2nd. The first few weeks with the new baby home and everyone adjusting was tough but that’s always the case. Now it’s really not bad, if anything it’s better because the 2 aren’t fighting over my attention like they used to.

Answer

I went from 1 to 3 in 1 year. My daughter was born august 12, 2020 and my twin boys were born August 6, 2021. This is the HARDEST thing I have ever had to do!

Answer

For me personally it was an easy change. 
I have 4 in total and the hardest was from 1-2 kids. 
My kids are all pretty close in age, with my first 2 being 13 months apart. 😅 I like a further apart age gap if I’m being real, like between my 1st and 4th kid. But still from 2-3 kids wasn’t bad, and if you have 3 might as well make it an even 4! 😂😂 jk.

Answer

Easier. The older two can play together and keep each other entertained. 1-2 was way harder for us

Answer

Wayyyy easier than 2.. no idea how that worked since our jump from 2-3 was only 12 months apart, but it works 😂

Answer

Easier than going from 1 to 2.

Answer

It depends on the age difference. Mine were only 19 months apart so it was quite exhausting but all in all, it’s been the easiest transition so far
