@abzin44 I’m honestly leaning more towards this. I don’t think a mask could be kept on at all.

@abzin44 My oldest goes to JK this fall which is what I’m mainly worried about. The other kids aren’t in daycare so I can mitigate the risk there.

@gutierrezangela67 We homeschool as well (pre school, so mainly play based learning), but I’m wondering if it would make sense just doing that at least for JK. He’s registered, so if we change our mind we could send him to school, but the amount of illness that runs through schools is crazy.

@cinderedsoul I do breastfeed but not exclusively. My supply tend to come in hot for the first couple months and tank pretty quickly after that. So I still breastfeed in conjuction with pumping/formula. Either way, they’re getting breastmilk for at least 6 months.

@alexanderjt At one point we had 3 under 2! That so far was the hardest. They already run to me whenever the baby needs something. They’re very help despite me never imposing baby help on them. We’re HUGE sous vide fans! I bought my husband one for Christmas years ago and it gets tons of use in...

@getonyourfeetmusic We actually had self-imposed visitor restrictions lol. Our first three were born during lockdown, so there were absolutely no visitors. My husband couldn’t even go to the NICU with our first (April 2020). When we had our fourth in March last year, we realized how much we...

Are we crazy?!? We very well might be! My husband and I found out that we’re pregnant with baby #5 last weekend! Still waiting for my doctor to come back from vacation so I don’t have anymore details besides that lol. We’ve always wanted a big family, and it think it’s pretty neat to have them...

@lesigny Thank you for this! For context, I’m 27 (so is my partner) so I know I have quite a bit of time reproductively speaking. My partner says to maybe shelf the idea until the girls are three and if that desire is still there, then we can try. I think you’re right though, I think I’ll...

@cptbobproffesoromemeology I only ran with all three if my husband was around. Whoever was running the longer distance would take the single.

@bob999 It’s still hard to say - #4 is only 8 months old. The gap is 22 months between #3 & #4 however #3 is a twin. I find now that my daughter is more mobile (crawling, pulling to stand) the “older” kids interact with her more.

@hekter Once upon a time I had 3 under 2. I used the Thule Urban Glide double (my husband and I are both runners) and an Ergo Baby.

@yebz I’m so sorry for your losses ❤️❤️ I was at risk for placental abruption with my oldest - I had 3 SCHs that were covering the majority of my placenta so if they fused, it would’ve been game over.

@dee1720 I’m sorry about your loss ❤️ I too have had PPD/PPA with both deliveries, though it wasn’t as bad the second time around. My previa cleared around 22 weeks, though for 10 weeks I wasn’t allowed to pick up my son who at the time wasn’t even walking yet. That was hard.

@cowboyup Tbh not really. I know it can be pretty expensive, and a friend of my parents had an insane adoption horror story (long story short, the orphanage peaced out with $50,000 of their money). So those two things scared me off.

@douglofgren Thank you ❤️ I’m at peace with it now but it was definitely hard physically/emotionally for a while.

@marilynliddell I’m sorry for your losses mama ❤️❤️ You totally get where I’m coming from - it’s crazy stressful but I love my kids and I love being a mom. I wish I had a crystal ball that would tell me what to expect 😂

@izakb Oh, I’ve heard of that. I heard it can increase your risk of miscarriage too depending on where implantation occurs. It’s so crazy that no one picked up on it until baby #3.

@izakb Do they know why you had reoccurring preterm labour? I’m currently on the IUD so we’re pretty covered, but am debating taking it out at the three year mark so it’ll take a little more premeditation.

For anyone here who’s commented (or not): did you regret your choice to push through despite the complications? Did you feel at peace with where you stopped?

Thought I would update this again - baby #4 was born in March! 7lbs 4oz
