Can I survive without a helper?

I have a pair of 16 mo twins who need a lot of attention, and a newborn baby. Moving out from in law house to a 4 room flat soon. I do not like to have strangers (helper) at home. And I do not trust them in taking care of my kids. So I sent my twins to ifc and taking care of my newborn myself. Helper helps in the morning before twins go to school. And after kids come home. Ifc is not within walking distance. Do u tink it’s possible to do without a helper? Anyone with similar situations can share your experience? TIA!

hi, if you are a SAHM, it can be done but schedule will be hectic. As you're with your in-laws now, get them to help check on newborn while you attend to twins. Since newborn will be in cot most of time, you have more time with twins when they're back home. If all awake, they can bond together. When you move out, do get a part-time helper to do housework. You can use a baby sling/carrier for your newborn when sending/fetching twins from ifc. If unwell, do get your in-laws to pop by to help. Hope all goes well :)
