9 month old twins and pregnant again!

Mrs.Beau

Hello ladies!  I just found out that I'm expecting baby #3....and I have boy/girl twins who are 9 months old, which means the twins will be 17 months older than #3.  Being pregnant was a complete shock!  It took us 3 years and multiple rounds of fertility treatments to have the twins, so we never expected to get pregnant the "old fashioned way".

 All of that to say, I'm a bit overwhelmed right now!  I'm nervous about managing all three kids, plus I feel guilty about the twins not having more of my time before bringing #3 into the picture.  Any advice, similar experiences, etc would be welcome...

Oh my! Congratulations! My DS and the new baby will be 13.5 months apart. This pregnancy was a surprise too! I don't have any advice yet but I am also nervous and I also feel guilty of my son not having more of my time. But then I think any children after him will have zero me time, so really he got 13.5 extra months of me time than anyone else! Good luck to you!

Congratulations!!

No advice really yet from me either. I am getting induced tomorrow! DS #2 was a surprise for us as well due to our IF history, we thought it would take a LOT longer to get pregnant again. I can tell you though I have battled emotions over feeling bad I didn't get more one on one time with just DS, shoot, I am STILL battling it. I look forward though to watching them interact and grow together. Good Luck!!
