It seems I am definitely not the only one who gets these comments. The family seemed to have recovered from the news and are now reasonably excited. I have a friend who works and has 4 kids and I admire her but I dont really comment on that to her.
If anyone had asked me ( a few years ago) if I'd thouoght I would be married and have four kids before I was 32 I would have laughed myself. I dont know what it is but I really enjoy them, sure some days are harder than others but thats life. After I had my third m/c I think I changed as a person and re evaluated what was important to me and its my family. Dh has always wanted a big family so it was never an issue for him. The latest comment I got was after buying a pair of maternity shorts when the lady serving me said "A new baby isnt that wonderful, is this your first?" (my others were with MIL for a couple of hours) I replied "no, this is number four." The response "Oh My God!" I just laughed.
