I worry about not becoming pregnant from this cycle.
I am also scared that it will work..
.. My sleep will get interrupted once again. I love sleep.
I worry that I will gain a lot of weight and lose myself.
I worry about possibly falling into a postpartum depression again.
I worry about my sanity, and wonder if my fuse will be shorter with 3 children.
I worry that I am not as present as I could be with those beautiful little girls.
I worry about splitting my attention up with another child. I know they will feel it. I know they already do.
I worry about how our family dynamics may change if this cycle IS successful…
But then I see this…
And I remember why I am doing this again….

You know that every mom looking to have another baby worries about many of these things, right? You really shouldn’t be worrying about being present or splitting your time between three. Your time will be spent so differently once you move. You’ll probably have more time once you have three than you do now. Your fuse will adapt to dealing with three kids. I went from 1 to 3, and mine did just fine. You’re going to do wonderfully!

Family dynamics will change, but kids are so resilient they will bounce right along with whatever happens. Good luck with everything.

For some reason, 2 are harder than 3. I know this makes no sense, but for me, and all of my friends that have had a third….it seems so much easier.

What an amazing picture…
I think moms have an incredible way of expanding…their uterus, their energy level, and their heart. Everything just fits…

Really sweet sentiment! This is the area of life for which I am most ignorant, but the sincerity of your posts tells me you are a great mother and will continue to be!

we all feel like that..although I am not trying to get PG again, I know if i was..that I would feel exactly like you do..”How am I going to do this? again?” I worry about bedrest and monitoring and perinatologists and NICUs again..but you’re right, it would be SOOOO worth it and it will be for you too.

Ahh, how cute!!
I know exactly how you feel. We are trying for our third and at least 10 times a day, normally when my sons are trying to out scream each other, I think we’re completely mad.
Best of luck!!
