While Jared shared his enthusiasm for a larger family dynamic, he candidly admitted that the prospect of managing multiple children can be overwhelming. “I want that big family dynamic, but man, having so many kids is just so overwhelming.

Ashley Iaconetti on the other hand shared about teaching their two old baby boy about the upcoming of his sibling. Iaconetti stated, “I try to teach him, 'Where's the baby? It's in the belly!' Sometimes I'm like, 'Where's the baby?' And he'll point to his belly. So he doesn't get that it's my belly. He has been extremely, even more so of a mommy's boy since this child has been in my belly." So he is already getting jealous.”

She wrote, “To be honest I’m quite terrified of being pregnant again. As most of you following me know, I had Hyperemesis Gravidarum with Dawson…I threw up almost daily for seven months and needed to be on an IV quite often during the first 16 weeks of pregnancy because I couldn’t keep any liquids down.” “Despite this, I definitely want a family of four if possible - ideally, I’d like Dawson to have a sibling within three years of his age. So we’re going to start ‘trying’ at the end of the summer.”
