I need to admit this.........

Baby #3 will be here in roughly 3 months and I am scared s h i t l e s s. Like wondering why the EFF I decided I wanted a third - at least while my girls are both still so young.

My second is a holy terror. My first is an angel. I can hardly handle the two of them in public - how am I going to do it with three? How am I going to be a good mom to three of them? One (or two!) of them are going to get the shaft, and I am so worried it is going to be angel 3.5 year old.

I'm scared and worried and scared some more. I don't know how the hell I am going to do this! I SAH and MH works 80-90 hours a week (6 days)

I know I can't change anything, but still.....

I'm sure you do just fine!

And if not............... invest in some good tranquilizers.

Well I just had our third and it is going well. I still have to deal with tantrums and issues with my older girls but it really isn't as difficult as I thought it would be. The baby just sleeps a lot right now and my girls ADORE their baby sister.

I freaked before she was born, too. I'm happy to say it was for nothing!

big hug to you, because i know how you feel. I'm SOOO excited to be having my son but some days OMG what am i going to do with two LO's who aren't even mobile with out my help. But then i remember the cheesy line of one day at a time, we can do this!

Just do like the card in your siggy says, get baked.  J/K (kinda).  I'm sure you will do great.  My grandmother had 14 kids, and she's still standing.  So I know you can do it.

I was thinking of stock piling wine and Paxil - but tranquilizers may work as well

I know this sounds totally cliche, but everything always finds a way to work.. Once your new LO is here, that will probably be the last thing on your mind.

It is simply a season.  It will pass and you will wish you had it all back.  I am really scared too, but I know that no matter how frustrating it gets that each day is truly a blessing.  As your kids grow, it will get easier and you will really get to enjoy them for who they are, as they are.  Children are so very precious.  Each one a special gift and blessing from God with great destinies before them.  I try to remember this simple but profound truth on days like these when I am exhausted, worn out, grumpy and overwhelmed. 

Somehow we will get through it and be all the better for it!

I hear benedryl works wonders on the trouble makers.

In all seriousness, I'm freaked about having one. You're screwed, man.

I was the 2nd daughter and the terror as well. My mom didn't know how to handle me so she would just get frustrated and be mean, just don't be mean lol I'm sure you won't be tho. Sorry just had to say that....
