Who has 3 under 3 or 3 under 4? How much harder is it then 2 if you dont have much family to help?

We have 0 family, and I only have 2 friend but both live far away (one is like 60 years old, and the other is like 75 or something lol 😂) so they can't ever help lol

When I had my third it was a difficult transition to be honest. Not because of the amount of children, but more because of my newborns personality. My older two were typical "newborns" but this last one was practically superglued to me... it was SO HARD because she needed to be in my arms 24/7, I'm not even exaggerating. She is now over a year and I still call her my Velcro baby lol 😂 .

The first 3 months will be hard. My dh helped by taking our oldest (son) into the spare bedroom at night and they slept in the bed there together. My middle child then slept in my room with me and the baby. It was the only way anyone got sleep, and it worked well. During the day I had to "wear" my baby constantly, it was truly exhausting. Plus I think she was colicky (if I can remember correct, it's all kind of a blur lol 😂) I would walk up and down the hall way for 2 hours every night to get her to sleep..

After that 3 months it did get easier, as any baby does. My dh was also in a job issue(end up getting let go,) at the same time baby was born till she was 3 months, so that didn't help... But again, I think the struggle really does depends on the child. My first two are easy breezy, my third has a more sensitive personality, and it definitely shows, even till now, although she has gotten way more independent ...hoping #4 doesn't throw me completely off the crazy end lmao 😂 you'll be fine. You'll find a routine that will work for you and you'll sink into a groove 🙂

I will have 3 under 3. I have no help from family. My husband and I do it on our own. My kids never need to a babysitters either. Only time my daughter was for a few hours was when I was giving birth to her brother. I am very lucky and thankful my husband is in this parenting job with me 100%. As long as we are a team we will get through it and handle it. Sometimes it gets real hard on me being a SAHM. With absolutely no breaks. When my husband sees me wearing thin. He will tell me to go do something. Whether it be gambling for a few hours or a long drive in the hills. Anything to get out and have quiet time. We don’t have date nights or anything bc our kids don’t go to babysitters. But we spent the first 8 years of our relationship alone. So we both knew what we were signing up for when we decided to start a family. No matter how hard it is and gets. I wouldn’t change one thing and I have a sense of pride that we are doing it alone. My mom is co-dependent. And pretty much supports both my brothers and their families. Because I don’t need her to support us she doesn’t talk to us. She doesn’t really even know my children.
