@infomommax I went for a second pregnancy and got twins. We had 3 kids under 2 for about 5 weeks.
We got a puppy when the kids were 4 & 2, now they are 6, 4 & 4.
1 kid was fine, 3 is a struggle. I’m lucky I work about 45 hours per week from home and have since 2018. The twins started full time daycare at 12 weeks and childcare is the biggest portion of our budget.
Plus 1 to the commenter that said 3 kids is too much for grandparents to handle, both of our parents are around age 75 and have slowed down. They can really only hand a couple of hours max.
In 2021 I started anti-anxiety and anti-depression meds as well as seeing a therapist weekly. I struggle to keep up with the laundry, food shopping, cooking & cleaning, dr appts, speech therapy appointments, IEP meetings, kids clothing needs, sports, shoes & family time.
My husband is a partner and cleans, fold laundry, takes kids to appts, coaches their soccer teams and drops off the kids every morning.
