Default Re: 3 under 3?

My first had just turned two when my third was born. My fourth was born when my oldest was still three (for two more months anyway). I will tell you that two to three was hard because I suddenly didn't have enough arms for all of my kids. It's difficult to do it that way when they are so very young that they NEED your arms.

All in all, I love it. It does get overwhelming and some days I wonder what in the world I was thinking. The first year of my third child's life really WAS a blur. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. Especially now that they are getting a little older, I really love it.

However, my body, does not. I had increasingly worse pregnancies and now I keep throwing out my back because my core strength has gone kaput. I also didn't get to nurse my older three (for complicated reasons) which is why they are all so close in age. I've been up and down in weight over the past 5 years and my body is definitely showing signs of stress over it.
