[quote=Anonymous]Definitely not the case. We actually are more financially comfortable now than when our older two were little (I was able to take a longer maternity leave and have a nanny to keep her at home, I also WAH vs. in an office) so if anything I feel like I’m really getting to soak up the baby/toddler years with my last. Also I’m older this go round (late 30s) and a bit more confident in my parenting so I’m having a lot of fun re-living the little kid years. As for losing a bond with my middle kid, that isn’t the case at all. But I had a 5 year gap between #2 and 3, so I was already close with my older 2 before the third came along. And FWIW, my middle kid is closest with baby #3 despite being closer in age to my oldest. So I definitely don’t think he feels misplaced by having a younger sibling. In fact he keeps asking me to have another baby! (We are firmly done though). [/quote]
