[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I recently had my third child. My older two are 3 and 6. Would love suggestions on balancing all three in the mornings - my oldest gets on a school bus at 7:30-7:40. He has ADHD so he requires a fair amount of helicoptering to make sure he gets dressed, brushes teeth, eats breakfast, gets ready for the bus etc. for the past few weeks I’ve had help in the mornings if the baby is awake, but our childcare structure may be changing in the near term and I’d be mostly solo in the early mornings.

I’d have a nanny arriving around 8 to help, so it’s really just a matter of handling all three kids (including a hungry baby) until my oldest gets on the bus. Any suggestions helpful! I already lay out outfits and pack backpacks the night before, and I pre wash fruit to have with breakfast etc to keep prep simple.

Ultimately I hope to sleep train the baby to wake up closer to 8, but we’re at least a couple of months out from that point.[/quote]

Wear the baby whenever possible. My youngest basically lived in a baby carrier for the first 4 months. [/quote]
