I get it, it's the reason we're here, but I'm only about 6 months in and have no idea how ppl have multiple kids. Maybe it's just the baby phase idk and maybe it's bc my kid is impossible, never ever sleeps.

Don't you just love the parents that brag "we just have the easiest and best baby ever"? Yeah screw yall.

Rant over. I feel .00001% better.

Kid is probably teething. Give him some bourbon on the gums and then pour yourself a glass

These are the easiest times. You'll look back on this fondly when they're raising hell in third grade, when they're coming home at all hours as teenagers, when they're changing their major for the fourth time, when they're moving back in with you after their divorce.

Sure, especially if their names are Lyle and Erik.

Yep, felt great. I had a little grin while I typed it. First grin I've had in 7 years since both my kids were born.

One thing about having multiple kids is that if you space them out a little the older ones can start helping you with the younger ones.

It's true that it doesn't get easier, but it does get different (I've only gotten to age 9). The sleeping thing will definitely get better, so at least you'll be rested.

I think they get a lot more fun once they get to be 3-4 and older. That's makes up for the hassle.

Quit being a bunch of whining bitches. Take care of your children and stfu. When you are old AF, those children will be the ones that come visit your old, boring arse

My oldest two are okay but I think my youngest is on an active campaign to give me a heart attack.
