Having
2 was no big deal for me.  But when number 3 came along it took me over a year
to get use to having 3.  I always felt that with two there's a hand for each
child to hold, and a parent per child.  It's not like that with 3.  It took me
three years to decide to add to our family.  When #4 came along he just
blended right in, no problem.  It sort of felt natural.>>


I also think this is common.  One father (now going on #5) told me, "The
change from 2 to three was the hardest for us -- we had to go from "man" to
"zone.""
