[quote=Anonymous]Just a word of warning (sorry): my oldest has always been a great sleeper—started STTN by 8 weeks old and has never looked back (he’s now 5). My 2nd child was a great sleeper from newborn until 9 months old. She went through what I thought was typical sleep regression and I thought it would be over in a few weeks. She’s been a horrible sleeper ever since and she’s now 4 years old. She typically wakes us up 1-4 times per night for often unexplained reasons just screaming, crying, talking nonsense. We’ve tried everything including hardcore sleep training twice when she was a baby. She would cry/scream until she vomited.

I tell this horror story to let you know that when my kids were the same ages your kids are now, I too would’ve reported they were wonderful sleepers and I too considered having a 3rd. Ultimately we couldn’t have a 3rd right then due to other life circumstances but now knowing about the sleep issues we’d be going through w our 2nd and generally just both kids getting more difficult as toddlers-preschoolers than they were as babies, I’m relieved we didn’t go for that 3rd child after all. I would’ve been spread way too thin and completely exhausted w 3.[/quote]
