Considering Adding Two More...

[thecrazyisout]

Hi All! I have been with four DCK's for a few months now along with my son..I feel like I am in a groove now and thinking about adding one-two more....any advice? Or, do you think once a newbies are assimilated to your group it is just the same as four?

Anything I should think about before moving forward?

I look at it like this....when you have things down you can take on anything...ok well almost anything..
I do the same thing. i wait until a newbie is settled in before i take on another. I def. wait at least a month to see if the child will adapt and what their issues are if any.

Once I have that kid down, and if i have a spot open then i would consider another one. Unless they are siblings, I like the spread...

adding one more when they are over 2years of age is not that big of a deal. it's when they are younger that it makes a big difference....IMO

I think you should add just one at a time and make sure you clarify your trial period with the new family. If it is too much after adding, you could then terminate.
