Babies on the Brain

Third child?

I have two boys who I adore. I'm a stay at home mom and have been really thinking about trying for a third. I'm nervous because I just lost almost all my baby weight and don't want to have to lose it again. I just don't know when we should start trying and even if we should have a third. I've heard three is overwhelming however my boys would be over five and one over three by the time the new baby would be here so maybe that would make it easier?

    I say go for it! You're already at home so that makes it a lot easier and just because you're going to be pregnant doesn't mean you will gain a BUNCH of weight. Make sure to eat healthy so you can maintain the weight you already lost.( speaking out of opinion, I have never been pregnant).

  • I think we might be besties  Katm89!! I have two boys, 3.5 and 16 months, and we are on the fence about a third. We are 95% for going for it right now! My husband and I  JUST got done having a conversation about how people are so negative about having a third. We just feel like are family is incomplete =)  Good luck!

    @1017Shannon I think a lot of people are worried about the kids outnumbering them. My DH has 2 brothers and my MIL loved having 3 boys, so much so that I want 3.
