I agree that or third kid tipped us over the edge. After feeling pretty on top of the world with two, I called my best friend and said “this is really hard” after the third. And she said “yeah, I was starting to think you were crazy if you had three young kids and never thought it was hard” – which is exactly what I needed to hear. It makes sense that things are hard right now, but our mantra in our house is ‘everything is a phase’. Our third is 8 months and I’m starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Asking one parent to stay home with all three isn’t an overwhelming ask anymore, she doesn’t need to be held constantly… it’s getting better!
