Don't know if we can handle a baby. We have an 11, 13 & 14. We are 36, me, and 45. How hard is it going to be?

I am 25 my brother is 22 and my sister is 14. There is an 11 year age difference between my sister and I. Coming from the sibling side of things and seeing my mom go through the same kind of worries, my sister was the easiest kid she had to raise. Not only was there help from dad...there was help from my brother and I...and we loved it. Of course now she is kind of like an only child since my brother and I have moved out, but I have to say that my sister has kept my mom and dad young and active.

Some advise...you will have a blast with this baby, but don't take your older children for granted, make sure to ask them to do things don't just assume they will.

Hi I Am 27 Yo ,husband 39, He Has 2 Older Kids From Previous Marriage There 17,18. We Had A Baby A Year Ago. The 18 Yo Is A Very Active Person In The Babys Life The 17 Not So Much As She Lives W/her Mom. The Boys R Inseperable. My Step Son Takes His Little Bro To The Mall And Hanges Out With Him All The Time He Gets. For Us It Was Ok

I am 39 years old. I have a 20, 16 and a 7 year old.
When I got pregnant with my 7 year old it was a big decision for
me because my 3 are from diff. dads and single mom. But
I had my 7 year old and it was a great decision for me - the older kids helped alot and free baby sitter to go out on some weekends or go to the grocery store. Good Luck and God Bless.
