    Default Is 3 much worse than 2??

    We're heading for number 3! I was just wondering, is 3 that much harder than 2? I know 2 was so different than just 1, for sure!

    We jumped from 1 to 3, so can't accurately comment. A large part depends on the age of the older siblings. It'll be hard, but not as hard as going from 1 to 2, I believe.

    I am heading for #4 - I had an easy time going from 2 to 3 - 1 to 2 was hard on me.

    Girl I have only 2 and their both boys. It was hard for me to go from 1 to 2 cute at first but hard now. They have TOOOOO much ENERGY! We decided not to have any more but wish we could of if it wasn't for me not being able to carry them long term. Mine are premies no matter what. But I wish you all the best in your pregnancy and I will pray for you LOL!

    1 to 2 was so much harder. 2 to 3 and beyond is much easier. Now that I have 6, it seems like a dream to only have 3 kids. Not that I only want 3, but it seems like so long ago and seems like it would be so easy. If I knew then what I know now . . .

    The jump from 2 to 3 is better than 1 to 2 BUT... my third was the best baby ever. When he hit 13 months, LOOK OUT! Having the older siblings gives him all sorts of ideas that the older two never even thought of! Wouldn't trade him for the world, but no more for me!

    I'm expecting my fourth little girl now. My girls are 11, 4 and almost 2. I didn't have any problems with the transitioning of any of mine. All of my children are girls and they seemed to accept and love each other each time. I guess I've been lucky. I know I've been truly blessed with each of my girls.

    for me the transition wasn't as badas 1 to 2. The hardest thing about having three was that I had only two hands. My oldest was only five at the time and I did not want to trust him, but he surprised me.
