    Arimeh, to be honest, if you want another one I'd do it sooner rather than later...

    Once you are through the sleepless nights and nappies you don't want to go back (well I don't anyway!) I honestly couldn't imagine having another one now...

    Go for it!

    Mel I am know I only have one, but I would have to agree with the getting the sleepless nights and nappies out of the way, I think when we get around to it again I am going to be in for a huge shock

    My brother have four under 4 and while it was crazy there for a while, it got easier as each child would reach school age, the SIL was in for a shock when they were all at school! I think they would have gone on for more, but her OB advised against it as her body needed to "recover" all of hers were very close

    OMG!!!! Starbright!!! Wooo Hoooo!!!

    I did it! Four children and my eldest was 3 years and 4 months old. And do you know what, it has been busy, tiring, and the most awesome time of my life. My twins are almost 2 and are such a joy, my older boys are getting more independent, and I am seeing the end of the nappies/breastfeeding/nightfeeds tunnel after only 5 and a bit years. I always wanted a large family and this way I have done it without having to give up work for over a decade like some of my friends.

    I am now looking at the prospect of going to uni in a year and if my kids were more spaced out I would have been looking to get pregnant again around now so I am so pleased I never have to do that again

    TBH Melly from someone who has 3 under 3...............Id say wait.

    Give me two years and hopefully I can convince DH we need one more; we would have caught up on sleep by then

    TBH - if we still decide to head for four, we will have the same spacing. I couldn't imagine getting out of the groove we are in to wait a bit. While I'm mad, I think I'll stay mad and sleep deprived
