Kelpa, presuming Paige is your daughter?? but kids love to help and be helpful so don't worry about asking her to do too much as they're not usually shy about telling you if they don't want to do it.

I feel the same way about Maya Kelly, when I was feeding this afternoon the gremlins pulled out a whole pack of wipes (their fave trick  ) and I had to get her to stop them coz I was tied to the couch by my boobs. She does get a bit frustrated with them, but she doesn't mind and it's give and take, after they go to bed in the evening we have mummy and Maya time.

I'm also presuming Paige is your daughter? Your tickers only show 2 children. How old is your other one?
I have 3 kids. First 2 were only 17mths apart, and then just under 6yrs age gap...that gap was great!!
Whats one more after 2 kids lol
You'll be fine!! I was panicing when pregnant with number 2, not 3 haha

Yip and don't know the answer to that one. I would like my kids to be involved in a range of different activities i.e sports, music which should give them a range of friends so hopefully when some go off the rails my kids will opt to hang out with another bunch of mates, if that makes sense.

i'm so glad i found this thread today!!
although i have just had my second daughter 6 days ago, and a lot of you have 3 or 4!!
today is my first day by myself with them and i'm already experiencing 'mummy guilt' with my oldest (16 months) as she wants my attention when i'm feeding...
any tips from the super mums out there how to get through these first few weeks!!??
eeeek!

Not a super mum but I found that you simply need to let some things go, at least for a while. I'm normally really strict on tv but have allowed alot more of it at mo as it's wet an I simply can't entertain the kids as much as I used to. I know that as the weather fines up and bubs gets easier (she is every day) we'll cut it back down to minimal again. Don't worry bout the housework, and have heaps of easy meals in the house. You could try reading to your older child whilst feeding (I found the quite awkward) and get her involved i.e help bring up wind, change naps (getting you the new one).
Best of luck
