Having a baby after multiples!

[shockinamillion]

So like another multi mum we all know (YAY HELEN!) I am expecting number 3 around christmas!

We have not announced, so anyone on my FB please shhhh! :)

So, mums who have multiples and went back for more, what did you need extra of, and what was it like, and anything else you think we should know?

Congratulations!!! :yelclap:

Sorry, no advice though, my two are enough for a loooong time yet! :laughing:

Congrats :)

We kind of had what we needed already :) DS and DD1 were 3yr 3mth and 3 days when DDs 2 & # were born.

I guess we went and bought beds as we needed the cots back.

2nd time around I was much more relaxed as I had an idea of what I was doing :cool: Still have no idea with the older 2, they are my training kids ( not not really LOL )

:smiliedance::smiliedance: Whoooo Hoooo

CONGRATULATIONS....

I am going to keep an eye on your thread as I need to know these things also....

It is nice to have another multimum pregnant the same time as me:thumbsup:

congrats!!:yelclap:


I was the opposite - twins after one bub.

the bonus in your situation is I s'pose is your twins have each other the play with and keep company whilst you are doing bubba things.

Congratulations shockinamillion!!!!! :p

[shockinamillion]

Thanks guys.

Woohoo for us Helen!
I have already decided on a pram, the Valco twin runabout with a toddler seat. I will also get a carrier for the new bub just for at first to settle the twins in!

We have decided not to find out the gender either.

How are you feeling?

Shock - congrats again.

But OMG Helen - I didn't realise you were pregnant again too - and with a natural conception!!!! Woo hoo!!!!! Congratulations!!

I think macca was in the same boat - #3 born about a year after her twins. Last I heard she was busy, but things were going well.

TBH - the extra's i'd think you'd need would be a car seat, cot and maybe a pram.

Prams - not many to choose from, lol. I have the valco twin with toddler seat. Lexi and Eli love sitting in the toddler seat now, when Nick is sleepy when out (not very often) one of them sits in the toddler seat. The ABC is another on that can take 3. ONCE when out - I had Lexi in the sling, Eli in the pram next to Nick and Charli in the toddler seat (at 4 she didn't need to be, but I wanted to be quick, and she is still light enough to go in it!) BE prepared for the 'got your hands full' type of comments even more now!!

A sling might be the other thing that you might not have used as much with twins, but can be a godsend with a single bubba. I LOVE the hug-a-bub, mei tai, and ergo. I also had a bubba moe for the early stages.

PMSL shock- just noticed your last post......I guess you have already thought of the 2 big things I mentioned! :laughing:
