I'm right there with ya! I have 19 month old twin girls.  They turn 2 on October 22nd.  This babe is due November 15th!  Eeeeek!  It will be a crazy ride, that's for sure!

I'll have two under 2! So two under two must not be so hard if your having a third so soon?? Any advice is appreciated!

I will also dd will be turning 2 around the time the twins come. It's possible I might have 3 under 2 for a short while.

We will also have 3 under 2 (egads) for about 4-5 months. I have no advice since I am expecting twins but am happy to have company!

I'll have 3  3 and under for about 2 months.  If you count my daycare boys I'll have 5 that are 4 and under in January 2015 when maternity leave is over.  DS will be 4, DS will be 18 months, Daycare almost 2, and daycare almost 1, and then our newborn.

I have a three year old and one year old and am now 15 weeks, boy is it exhausting. Especially caring for them myself and working a full time job

Me! Hunter just turned 2 on May 17th and Charlotte just turned 1 on May 16.... so they will be 2.5 and 1.5 when baby comes. I also work full time as a kindergarten teacher, so it keeps me busy, I can't imagine what it will be like this time next year.

I'm 13w4d preggo with #4.. I have 7 year old twin girls and a 5 year old girl so at one point I had 3 that were 2 and under! My advice is to try to not be so serious and strict because things will happen... play with your kids when your able to it makes the hard moments easier.. Also it's easier to try to get your little ones you have now on a schedule if they aren't on one already because then you get "nap breaks" where you can really bond with new baby since the littles are sleeping... Oh and I started quiet time with my little ones where they could play or color but they had to be as quiet as possible while I was preggo so that if baby was sleeping I didn't have 2 toddlers screaming in the house (not to say I didn't have to remind them but I also would only ask for 5 mins because lets face it with toddlers you might as well get baby use to loud noise as well) hope this helps :-)

So cool to know that I am not alone! sometimes its hard with 2 running wild, but it is definitely worth it. Thanks Ladies! I look forward to the journey as tiring as it will be.
