[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I just found this thread and bumping it. I'm 12 weeks pregnant with my third (older children are 15 months and 3.5) and didn't find many of these responses reassuring. Any other pieces of advice? Also, when does it get better after the third starts walking? [/quote]

Our third is 15 and I thought it would be easier when he started walking. I was wrong. He watches his older siblings and gets into everything. It’s exhausting and I WOH so he is in daycare and I still find it incredibly challenging. We aren’t at the stage of multiple activities and honestly we run our house like a well run ship, but it’s still a lot. I wish I knew how hard it was. I love the guy but the last 15 months have been the longest of my life. [/quote]

I feel like it got easier when the third was about 3 (the other two were 4.5 and 7.5). Although we are now entering the multiple activities stage — this fall was a preview — and wow, just wow. But that was just logistics and running around — not nearly as bad as the chasing multiple toddlers. But 3 is A LOT. It is not for the faint of heart![/quote]
