Also, just to add to what the others have said, there is an adjustment period during which it feels stressful and chaotic when you add to your numbers. When I first started I thought I would only take 2...when I added the third, it felt crazy for awhile...then it was fine...then I added the 4th and it was crazy for awhile...now it is fine and I'll be adding number 5 in the fall! If it is new that you have this number of kids, give yourself a good month to adjust to it before deciding you can't do it.
