I'm pregnant with baby no.4 due in June. I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed with the thought of parenting 4 kids. I have a bad habit of putting pressure on myself. I'm just trying to figure out how I'm going to do it all. School drop offs, appointments, dinners, homework, sports and look after a new born and me. We do have quite a lot of appointments between the 3 kids. My husband works full-time and already helps so much his amazing. I love our kids so much and only want to give them the best of me and support they need at the different stages and ages they are. Any tips would be great.

I had 4 under 5. I cooked dinner in the morning so it didn't matter how much I was interrupted and I had plenty of time to clean up. Then you have a bit more time in the evening to do things like homework, running around. If your kids are old enough to walk from car to class then make use of that and use the drop off. Leave with plenty of time to make it to appointments. Dont stress too much, you've done this 3 times already, it won't be much different at all, once you're settled with your new baby it will all be second nature and you won't remember what it was like before.
