Hi!
We have 3 kids, and my husband go back and forth if we should have a 4th. Everyone says 3 is the hardest number on a marriage and sibling dynamic. Would love advice from families with 3 that went for the 4th, and ones that are just 3. We have a mix of genders - girl, and 2 boys, all under 7. Youngest is almost 3.

Just wanted to say I’m in the same boat! I’ve been hearing that you never regret having the kid, but you may regret not having one… would love to hear from any other mamas of 4!

In the same boat! 2 boys and a girl, oldest is 6, youngest is 9 months. 3 has been so hard, don't think I could go for 4 but always curious what others say.

Also always wondering the same thing!! On the days my kids are nuts and fighting...which are most I wonder how we would survive. I also think 4 may even out the team up they have on the odd one out that happens in my family!

I hear you never regret the kids you have. I'm just so tired and overwhelmed and worn out. Idk how people do it. It sounds fun though!

It’s beyond exhausting, but SO worth it! I can’t imagine our family without our 4th! Go for it!!!!!

DO. IT. Short term sacrifice for a lifetime of fun and a full table. I’ve got 4 under 6 and damn it’s hard but also it’s so fun and I can tell it’s going to be awesome in the next 2 years. You won’t regret it!

In my opinion, no one regrets having another kid
