I was definitely freaked out once it actually happened because I was worried it would slow us down as a family from doing big kid things but he’s been such a joy for our whole family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922618 Fri, 19 Feb 2021 10:56:03 +0000 LadyDi 2922618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations! I have three and they are all super close in age and it was hard (especially 2 under 2) but the oldest (5) has just been a dream with his new baby brother. You will love watching them all together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922611 Fri, 19 Feb 2021 00:38:57 +0000 ALV91711 2922611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats mama!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922609 Thu, 18 Feb 2021 21:23:43 +0000 winter_wonder 2922609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!! I am due in July. DD is going to be 5 next month, so I can relate to the feeling like you're starting over! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922608 Thu, 18 Feb 2021 21:02:06 +0000 LemonJack 2922608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! My third is a little over a year and it’s been so fun. I love watching how my oldest interacts with him and dotes on him. She’s old enough to understand that he’s little and needs help with things, and is never jealous. As a result, he adores her and follows her everywhere. It’s the best! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922575 Wed, 17 Feb 2021 18:08:23 +0000 codeitall 2922575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Purpledaisy: My kids are 6, almost 4 and 7 months. I was just thrilled with how much my older kids love their baby sister. They love to make her smile, bring her toys, 'help' her sit/roll/wave/whatever and my daughter gets a real kick out of picking her cute little baby clothes.</p> <p>I think many people are concerned that older kids will feel that the youngest takes all the attention, but my kids all have moments of me saying "wait, I'm doing so and so and x first" and as long as the baby also has to wait sometimes, it seems fair :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922569 Wed, 17 Feb 2021 13:03:05 +0000 graceandjoy 2922569@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations! That is so great! Mine are 6, 4, and 1. Chaotic for sure, and #3 honestly was a surprise, but our homes and hearts really are so full. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922566 Wed, 17 Feb 2021 00:36:55 +0000 JCCovi 2922566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! Mine are currently 7, 6, and 7 mo. Having older kids makes a big difference and have 3 at these ages is much easier than when I had 2 under 2. The older kids dote on their sister too which is sweet. ❤️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922565 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 23:06:20 +0000 karenbme 2922565@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations! 🍾🍾🍾 (&lt;—sparkling cider) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922561 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 21:09:18 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2922561@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Purpledaisy: yipeeeee!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922560 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 20:37:33 +0000 bhbee 2922560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! Mine were 6.5 and 3.5 when youngest was born. It is crazy for sure to have 3, but they were great age gaps for us. I’m sure your oldest will be a big help! They’ve all been so close with the pandemic keeping us home. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922559 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 20:36:20 +0000 Jess1483 2922559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!! My older boys were 6.5 and 4 when #3 was born and it was amazing. There’s never been any jealousy because they understand and they adore her and fall all over themselves to get her to laugh or to be happy. Really, the love to three kiddos was awesome. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922557 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 18:46:42 +0000 cake2017 2922557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Purpledaisy: Yes! We just found out we are expecting #3 and I have my freaking out moments as well. I have a 3.5/18 month old! Would love a support group but I know it’s very slow on here unfortunately. Congratulations!!!!!! ❤️ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922556 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 18:05:17 +0000 Purpledaisy 2922556@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@greencraftycello: @meadow: @JennyLayneAZ: thank you! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922553 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 17:38:10 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2922553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922551 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 15:36:19 +0000 meadow 2922551@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922550 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 15:10:01 +0000 greencraftycello 2922550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congratulations!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922549 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 14:35:55 +0000 Purpledaisy 2922549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@josina: thank you! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922547 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 13:59:09 +0000 josina 2922547@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922546 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 13:25:36 +0000 Purpledaisy 2922546@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@codeitall: thank you!! What are your age gaps??I feel like this is going to throw off our whole family dynamic, we have such a good thing going with our family of four... even though I have LONGED for this third baby and I know especially my oldest is going to be thrilled... she’s been asking a lot lately when we are going to have another baby😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922545 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 13:16:29 +0000 codeitall 2922545@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Congrats! My third is now 7 months and honestly, having older kids to pitch in is a total game changer. You've got this! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/just-need-to-announce-this-to-someone#post-2922544 Tue, 16 Feb 2021 13:07:45 +0000 Purpledaisy 2922544@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just got a positive pregnancy test :shocked:<br /> This will be baby #3, we were trying and hoping to get pregnant, and I’m still freaking out!!<br /> Anyone else expecting again on here??
