2 bedroom with 2 kids?

We love our current 2 bed but we have a 2nd baby on the way in early 2027. Need to decide whether to spring for a 3 bedroom in Oct once our lease is up or wait until next year when baby#2 will be 9-10 months old. Baby#1 is almost 3 and still in his crib.

We expect to have a night nurse for the first 2-3 weeks and then we have a nanny at home in the afternoons when my son is not in preschool. I will be home with the new baby for 6 months and then will be back in the office 4 days a week, WFH from our bedroom 1 day a week (if that’s still possible).

Parents who made the 2 bedrooms work (yes of course I know it’s totally possible and considering a 3 bed is a huge privilege), how was it? What was your set up like? Where did your night nurse stay if you had one? Do you wish you’d moved to a larger space?
