Hi there

I've recently had my 3rd child two weeks ago, and even though I'm tremendously happy; I'm feeling extremely guilty on my older 2 children (22 months & 4 years ) that I can no longer give them the attention I use to give. Before baby I was able to take themy places by myself and now I need some one with he to help.

Please tell me this guilty feeling will go away, as I hate saying to them, just one minute but it turns into half an hour. I just hope they don't look back and hate me xx

i feel the same, my older two are 10 and just 18 months, newborn is 3 weeks. My husband has pretty much taken over care of my 18 month old , taking him out to the park doing fun things to keep him occupied, and i miss him! meanwhile my oldest is juust getting asked to help out constantly!! do this, get this for me.....!!

We have 3 and I'm pregnant with our 4th. I think the first weeks are the hardest. Things do settle down a bit after a while. We have a low table in the living room. I used to sit on the floor to breastfeed while they did drawing and stuff at the table. It made them feel like I was spending time with them. I also don't know how I would have survived without my boba wrap. It let me put baby to sleep and still have free hands. Sometimes they just have to learn to wait because you can't do everything.

Now I am in bed with hg and can't do anything for the kids. OH has actually taken time off work for a few weeks until I am better.
