Hello, mother of four here.

Okay, everybody who told me that "After 3 kids it's all the same" ...lied.

I think we've reached our limit.

After all, "4 is the new 6" right?

p.s. I'll probably feel differently about this tomorrow.

Kathryn, I think I was one of those people who said that four is no harder than three. I guess it might have been because I had my fourth in the summer (HUGE difference) and Meg was almost nine and helped a ton. Also, my mother in law came for six weeks and helped.

Also, we have to tell you that so you don't freak while you are pregnant. It is hard.

I second paragraph #2 of Vicki's comment. And yes, you will probably feel differently, but maybe not tomorrow. It will probably be at LEAST 6 months, but that's okay :) Luv you! It gets much easier, I promise.

Hey Kathryn! It will get better! Becky will take a break, even if it's just getting a sitter for a couple of hours and will go to the park or a book store or something. She started making it a regular routine after a while, just so she could collect her thoughts!

I too may have been one that said '4 was easy.' It all depends on ages and spacing too. You are dealing with a not-quite 2 year old too and younger kids than mine were. Hang in there.
P.S.-I find myself freaking out a little that I will have #5 before #4 is 2! I've never had that close of spacing before.
Hang in there. Tomorrow is a new day.
