Parenting can be a challenging task, no matter what. However, when you are taking care of multiples,. it can be down right difficult! In an exclusive interview with People Magazine, mother-of-four Chrissy Teigen reveals the “Hardest Part” of parenting four children.
“For me, the hardest part is making sure the older ones feel loved and taken care of and just as special as the babies, even though you might have your hands on the babies a lot more,” Teigen said.
She continued in her exclusive with the popular entertainment magazine saying, “There’s a lot of diaper changing and feeding and it seems like you’re coddling these two little babies and they’re not getting enough. I was speaking with my therapist and I was like, ‘I’m having a hard time because I want to make sure that Miles and Luna feel like we still love them.'”
Teigen added, “I think any parent of multiple kids can understand that you want to make sure they still feel loved.”
The 37-year-old said that she hopes that there are no new changes within the next year for her family. She said in her interview that “this is our tight number now,” admitting that she worries that, “you’re never going to give enough to your kids.”
“They’re always going to ask for more, so it’s important to give them the things they need but also support yourself so you don’t go crazy. I didn’t grow up around babies or children, so seeing my children experience a world with littles coming in, I see how that could be hard for them.”
She concluded, “So we try to do the best we can to make sure they feel fulfilled and happy and paid attention to and listened to. It can be a lot, it’s a lot to give yourself to little beings, but we sign up for it. We ask for it and we want to do it, and it’s all okay.”
The former model and current cookbook author shares seven-year-old Luna, four-year-old Miles, ten-week-old Wren, and seven-month-old Esti with 44-year-old singer/songwriter John Legend.
From what we see, it truly looks like Teigen and Legend are unquestionably doing “the best” that they can. Luna, Miles, Wren, and Esti all truly seem like happy children all around!
