I'm not in the same boat, but I would HIGHLY recommend you start lining
up help now. You're clearly more experienced at the Mom thing than me. My twin girls are it for us. The biggest thing that hits me in the head when I think of your situation is HELP. You don't have to be a martyr. You don't have to prove you can do it all. Accept any and all forms of it. Also, I find that I need to spend one-on-one time with just my girls. There are clear times where a bad behavior can be pinpointed to them needing either time alone from eachother or simply extra attention from me or my husband. I can only imagine how much attention each of your children will be desiring. So, maybe you can try to come up with a solution for those pinches when one or more of your kiddos is hitting a brick wall due to needing special attention. It's not like you can just say, okay "Bobby" lets go to the park for a couple of hours and leave the other kids at home by themselves Anway that's my .02!
