[quote=Anonymous]We have 3 -- ages 10, 8 and 5. I grew up in a family of 3 kids, and my husband was the oopsie-4th (9 years behind his other 3). As an anonymous internet stranger, I totally encourage you to go for the 3rd so long as you and DH are on the same page. It was nowhere near as hard to navigate going from 2 to 3 as it was going from 1 to 2. Now with sports and activities, it is getting more complicated but that will be for a finite number of years. My girls (the older 2) love being the older siblings, and the youngest loves being the youngest (the boy). I do see the middle feeling like a "middle" and some history potentially repeating itself like with my middle sib (I'm the oldest). I'm actually considering a 4th to balance things out as there are a lot of 2 on 1s (in all combos) so someone always feels left out. Maybe a 4th would even the scales.[/quote]
