Wanting More Than One Baby

Many people say they want more than one baby but do not think about the responsibility of having one. Some people believe starting with one baby would demonstrate if you are ready to have another baby in the future. You have to understand that it all begins when you end up pregnant. The difficulty of getting up when you get hungry, showering, and have everyone support by doing groceries and lots more. Then you give birth, depending on whether it's c-section or natural birth. Natural is painful when getting stitches since you can not move or sit down. C-section, you are on bed rest for three months. Nursing or giving them formula requires them to get up every two hours and feed the baby. Early morning you need to nourish them again, or they will keep crying louder. Then as they get to teething, babies end up super fussy and doing more tantrums. Babies have diffusivity sleeping when it comes to them trying to soothe themselves to sleep. Then comes the period where your baby is eating solid food. You need to find the time of day to feed them. When you are trying to work on something, the baby comes first. You are not able to do anything unless your child is satisfied with their needs. When it comes to satisfying their needs, babies need to have their diaper change, well-feed, have their toys with them, or want attention. Babies at eight through nine months, babies start to crawl, end up getting cords, going under the bed, and cry when they are tired of being on their tummy. The hardest part of having a baby is trying to clear their nose from sinuses. Babies are so used to using their noses to breathe since they were out of their womb. Usually, when babies can not breathe through their nose, they wake up and become very irritable. Having them on a schedule would help them sleep throughout the night. Then soon, babies will start to walk. That's when they start grabbing and going through everything that they can get their hands on.

Could you imagine having more than one baby or child? That requires you to work double and make sure both babies are satisfied. The main thing to think about is finances and patience when having more than one child. Patience has a lot to do when having more than one child. The responsible thing to do would be waiting for the right time to have another child. Unlike, when having twins or triplets, that it was unexpected. So the need for being responsible is mandatory. People that have more than one child at once need to balance out their attention to each child. So babies won't feel that one is loved more than the other. Having to feed all babies at the same time could be difficult if you have more than one child at a time. As a parent, you must make sure they do not get to places they are not supposed to, like grabbing sharp objects or smash fingers on drawers and a lot more.

So as the result of having more than one child, there is a lot you need to think about when having babies. Are you patient enough? Do you have a fiance for more than one child? Would you give up things you love for the children? Are you going to be able to work if you had no support? Many do not always have options, but if you have the time to think about having another baby. This will give you the opportunity to figure out whether or not you are ready for another child.
