Cloudnine jnr III is due in a few weeks and I'm bricking it. I feel like I've got my driving test this afternoon.. sort of nervous. I'm not sleeping properly and feel sick. The other 2 didnt really bother me that much and dealt with their arrival fine. Why am I shitting it this time round?

just because youve done it twice before does not mean it is any less of a big deal. it is a pretty big thing to go through both physically and emotionally. just try to remain calm. shit advice im aware but im just trying to be positive. my second is due in march and to be honest its not really sunk in yet.

because you're going to be outnumbered, outflanked, and eventually overrun.

Good luck with that (JV, snipped at 2)

Bingo. 2 (parents) into 3 don't go.

I always thought that 3 kids would be three times as hard, but it isn't.

1 is hard; 2 is ten times as hard; 3 is a hundred tiems.

Apart from that, it's great. 🙂

Best of luck though, Twins the 2nd time around so I've only done that "part" twice...I was strangely relaxed on both.

I actually mentioned yesterday that after 3 having another wouldn't be such a shock....hmm, reckon it's time for those two bricks!! 😳

I take it you're the man? 🙂 My missus was more nervous and anxious second time round.

Seriously though, it's a pretty massive under-taking and given you've done it twice already you'll understand just what a change it will bring - sleepless nights again, worry, etc etc. You don't say how old the other two are, but I'm guessing maybe one is under 3 so you can still remember the tiredness?!
