    As a Mum about to have her fifth little treasure I totally get where you are coming from.
    My 3rd son was a sickly baby (colic,reflux allergies) and to be honest put me off and made me think I was done for many years.
    In fact he was almost 6 before number four came along.

    Although whilest in the middle of sleep deprivation it seems like such a long time in the scheme of things they really are only babies for such a short time.
    My eldest started high school last week now that was a wake up call because it seems to have seriously flown by. It is such a cliche' but you really do have to enjoy them when they are little because they do grow up so fast.

    Dont be afraid of another one,two or even four if thats the case because the bad times are far outweighed by the good and the love as you know keeps growing everyday that they do.

    It's not cliche' it's so true, I can't believe in another amount of the time we have come thus far she'll be 1!

    Thanks Cheezel.

    I totally understand too. I never thought it was possible to love someone so much! I just want to bottle this feeling, it's amazing

    And it gets better as they get older! I fall in love more with DS everyday, I love seeing all the things he can do, walking, talking, etc, and this week it was using the potty. It really is amazing how they can capture us.

    DH and I were talking about this at the weekend. Apparently, when I was pg with DD, he asked a few collegues for the reality of having children, and one said that it just keeps getting better, and it really does! Its amazing seeing what she can do everyday, and I often will sit back and just watch her discovering something, or the way she plays with something differently now she's a bit older. I love it! It totally outweighs all the bad times, the sleepless nights (and we had many, many of those!), the pooy nappies and the tantrums.
