3rd baby - can't decide!

Just wondering if there's anyone out there who has 3 children, if so how difficult was it going from 2 kids to 3? We have two boys aged 5 and 2 and trying to decide whether to have a third baby. And no its not coz i want a girl - i would be equally happy with another boy :-) Some days I think its a great idea and can imagine a lovely lively house as they grow up together, but then I get those days when the boys seem like such hard work I can't imagine how I would cope with a third!! If anyone has any advice I'd be very grateful to hear from you! x

I have 3 children, Freddie age 11 months,Ellis age 2 and Melodie age 3, as you can see I had them quite close together and I think the hardest was going from one to two children! Once you've got 2 a 3rd seems no problem at all, as you know roughly what to expect and already have 2 running round the house! Its lovely havin 3 and we are thinking of having another! So my advice is go for it!! You already have 2 and must do a good job for you to want a 3rd, plus I think you're eldest will probably want to help when the new one is born! Good luck, Kelz xxx
