    thats a gorgeous saying "you never know love until you have a child" its the best feeling to ever experience!

    I will have almost 3yrs between my 2 and i think it'll be a good age gap, we both have said 2 will be enough for now mayb when this second one hits school age we might have another but have never settled on how many we want!

    before we got pregnant we always had ppl asking when the babies where coming, but we were happy the way we were and he come as a suprise but we wouldnt change it!

    I nearly made some old nana faint the other (nothing against old people just the general too young to have kids blah blah) anyway heres me with my huge pregnant belly and my 5 year old she asks if claire was mine i said yes her jaw nearly hit the floor then she commented on the bump and asked if bump was number 2 i said no bump is number 4 and 5 - i think she nearly died!!
    Age doesnt determine how much or a bad/good mummy you are, if only some people realised that!
    How are we all?

    Wow soo much to catch up on

    Welcome PZ! I feel for you hun on your TTC journey its a rough ride but hold on there is always hope! xoxo NEVER Listen to people who tell you that you don't deserve something when you know in your OWN heart you would do the best job you could ever do!!!

    MrsS- at the nanna and numbers 4 & 5!! would have been great to have seen it
    of course age doesn't matter i know a almost 40yr old who has 8 kids and doesnt deserve them as ive seen some horrible stuff, but on the other hand i know a 21yr old pregnant with her 3rd who doesnt deserve them either so of course age doesnt make you a good or bad mummy....It's all in your heart

    Kawazuki- welcome, glad to have you join us!
    thats lovely you accept your dss as yours u choose to marry your hubby u accept his previous children too, i know a 26yr old who's DP
    has 4 children to his ex and she has 1 to him, and those poor step children get treated like crap she has even now just stopped him from continuing on with court fighting for them from their mother that really upsets me they are a package!

    Raffy- welcome to you as well!
    i'll be looking forward to your BA how exciting being a first time mummy, i understand completely where ur coming from although it took DP and I alot longer then you to concieve, it took us 4yrs our first pregnancy ever (that we knew about) ended in a M/C, a month later i was pregnant again so our DS wasnt an whoopsie he was planned but didnt exspect it to happen so quickly after a m/c.....How exciting to have a baby boy they are just as handsome and loving as a little girl
    The age thing ive lost contact with alot of people cause we wanted a family and they didnt and as far as im concerned a family is much much much more enjoyable then going out getting drunk and wasting money basically, my only friends now are basically women alot older then me too i have a few friends with children who are my age but not many most are older

    After 8yrs DP and I still have our ups and downs but exactly as Kawazuki mentioned what would life be like if everything went our way, and as much as we whinge about our DP's/DH's we still manage to stick by them (as much as sometimes i get very frustrated with him and yep mainly over HOUSEWORK haha)

    Welcome Serenity and Ammaki!!! Glad you come to join us
    Havent mentioned this before but i look forward to getting to know everyone better and it helps having others around my age!

    Tellytubby- welcome and i feel the same way sometimes about thinking how my life would be different without my DS but you know i would NEVER change my life again and even if i could re-live my life over i would have my DS at the same age, YES it was hard but he is now my life he makes it worthwhile waking up everyday to see a smile on his face and tell me "Good Morning Mummy" when he wakes me up!

    Teni- Welcome!!! whoopsie babies frustrate me especially when the mother puts them up for adoption or simply has the baby but doesnt look after it the best way they could there is something called "protection" for a damn reason!
    You are going to make a wonderful mum, and look forward to hearing about your BA!

    Sarah- Men ahuh i hear you on that one lol he tell's me one day we will have a 3rd then the next week it might be nope 2 is enough! So we shall see im kinda betting i end up pregnant not long after this one is born simply cause i dont want to stuff around with contraception it screws wit my body and i've told DP he will wear a condom and he says like hell i dont like them haha so we shall wait and see once this ones born though!!!
    And YAY for the fridge its always exciting to get something new, i just got a new car yesturday!! Spend all day just thinking of things i needed down the road for an excuse to drive it :rolf: im such an idiot! hehe

    Deedles- welcome and looking forward to get to know you too!
    Congrats on finally having 2 little boys, how do you find being the only girl amongst all your boys lol give me some hints please hehe

    Oh dear im going to find hard to keep up with us all now LOL! ooops i was trying to copy my msg "incase" it decided not to post and i didnt have to retype it all, WELL it went the next page and come up with an error im like OH NO ive lost it, luckily it was ONLY telling me i've used too many smilies LOL

    I really hope I haven't offended anyone with what I said, by the way. I just get frustrated at these people I know who are always handing their kids off to their mums to go out partying every single weekend. I understand you need to get out, but seriously, if you're gonna get a babysitter, why not me? :p

    I got all excited today because I was allowed to change a friend's son's nappy Turns out I still need to get over my fear of pooey nappies, but i think I did an okay job. I suppose it'll be different with my own, too.

    teni, wasnt offended, just thought id let you know my first and current pg were whoopsies, but not regreted or resented at all! and yes your own babys poopy nappys are compleatly different! untill they hit 3 and still want to go in a nappy, then it is discusting, but were working on that.

    sorry if my bad spelling annoys anyone!

    I remember the first time I changed DD's nappy. It was in the hospital (obviously), and I felt sooo awkward, because it felt like a game.. Like I was being silly, and playing 'mums and babies' game. I know that sounds crazy. I guess it hadn't 'clicked' yet. Was all too surreal Now I could do it with my eyes shut And yes, it's definately different when it's your own. Especially the newborn nappys - those poo's are far from gross (bf babies). They don't smell or anything!! Once they start solids tho...... geeze!!! haha!

    Hi Miztqie (i spelt that wrong... didn't i?? lolz) Thanks for the warm welcome. Argh I hate it when the internet chews up your post and you have to start again. I also get a little too excited with the smilies and have to do some editing, haha.

    Serenity - You're such a fab mum. Soo much patience, I really don't know how you do it! I can see you with 6 kids, and i really envy you I would love a big family, but just don't think I could handle anymore.. You nevr know what the future holds i guess

    wow so much to catch up on

    Mizqtie - thanks for the welcome sorry to hear it took so long for you to concieve, i can imagine how frustrating that would have been, and also sorry about ur m/c. but glad you finally got ur sticky bub, and so quickly as well i to tend to have friends that are older than me due to where im at in my life. but i cant complain, they are great and help me out loads and all the other "friends" have fallen by the waistside which im fine with. amen regarding DPs, especially about the housework

    and i wasnt offended by anyones posts. each entitled to their own opinions and generally i tend to agree that there are people out there with babies that either resent them or leave them with people so they can go party which isnt fair as alot of couples ttc for years and spend alot of money to get a baby yet its so easy for undeserving people. and then there is also all the whoops babies (that majority of us have) but we love and support and look after our babies like we should iykwim??

    AFM - im a little bit excited, i lost my plug today, so at least i know things are happening. hopefully quickly getting loads of BHs and abdo/lower back pain. come on babyyyyy
