Baby #3?!

Question

Hey moms, my husband and I are trying to figure out when would be the best time to start trying for baby #3?

We have a daughter that will be 5 this August and a son that will be 2 next March.

Which would be less stressful?

Answer

It’s all personal preference. 
I am on baby 4 and my kids are 16, 8 and 4 years old. I’m still stressing about how I’m going to handle everything even though two of them aren’t as dependent on me for their needs.
I have a friend who had 4 under 4 and she looooves how close the ages are.
Plus, regardless of how long it took to conceive with your other two, there is no guarantee for when it’ll happen this time. You could start trying and not get pregnant until next year or you could be pregnant within a couple of months. 
The choice ultimately is up to you and your partner and how soon you’d like to have another.

Answer

I hear 3 is the hardest, and that 4 is generally easier, even though it's a large number, so 3 can be tough. But if you want 3 go for it!! As far as timing, how has the age gap been for your current kids? If it feels comfortable, try to recreate that age-gap, if not, maybe wait a bit.  Good luck!

Answer

Deciding when to have another baby can be a difficult decision. It's important to consider your personal circumstances and what would work best for your family. Some parents prefer to have their children close in age, while others prefer to wait a few years between each child. It's also important to consider your own physical and emotional health, as well as your financial situation. Ultimately, the decision is up to you and your partner. It may be helpful to discuss your options with your doctor or a family planning counselor.
