    It's sounding good! cluck cluck cluck

    I was just worried I would change something between my DDs and I don't want to change anything, they love each other so much. I should know by now not to worry! Before DD1 was born I worried that things between DH and I would change, before DD2 was born I worried about not having enough time for DD1 and how it would change things between us. Of course, things did change, but only for the better! It's just the fear of the unknown I guess. And as we get closer to wanting to TTC again it's on my mind again.

    Heaven, I think for the kids it's very much like it is for us - you think there is no more room to love another one, but there is kwim? It just means that their relationship becomes a 3-way one instead of a two-way one.

    oooh i'm interested in this too! I think about this too, my girls are best friends and I wonder how having #3 will change things.....

    I've always wanted 3 or 4 so definitely having more regardless of how it changes things!!

    I often think though that it will be so good that they will have each other to play with while we are busy feeding baby #3 etc.....

    Oh gosh, so great to hear what everyone is going through having 3 children!
    I just found out I am pregnant with number 3, so I hope for my DS's it's a crusey transition!

    My eldest keeps telling me he wants a baby in my tummy lol but I won't tell him until a lot later on.

    Both my DS's love and hate each other countless times a day so I figure I could do 3 lol.

    LOL! DD1 says the opposite! She says "Mummy, I don't want another baby sister, I just want L" nawwww! I think it's because she thinks if we have another one, then that will replace L for some reason?! I have to then explain to her, 'well how about another baby sister or brother AND you get to keep L too?" and she says "yeah!!!" hehe

    I can't wait to have a 3rd now.... so exciting!! Although happy with my 2 girls for now!
