On Having Three Children. Thoughts so far after being asked non stop what it is like.
This newsletter is about what it’s like for me, so far, having three children and why we decided to do it. I am writing about this because for some reason I have been asked this question on repeat since I had my third child in April and I think about it a lot. Is it selfish of me? How can I make sure these kids like each other. HAVE WE BITTEN OFF MORE THAN WE CAN CHEW? How lovely that they all have each other. I can’t hear myself think and it’s going to be years until I have time on my own. But also this baby is growing way too fast and he’s my last one and there is nothing more wonderful than a smiley little baby happy to see his mum.
So, scroll on to read my take on three children so far. I did actually google this quite a lot when I was pregnant - the question of what it’s like to have three kids is all over Reddit and Mumsnet. People have been asking me with genuine interest - not just a passing-the-time kind of question - because they are wondering if they should do the same.
