Wow - you women are amazing! I always said I only ever wanted 2 and then after No 1 was born, I swore I would never have another. Then I got the guilts about him being an only child and decided to have No 2. Now that I have had No2 and I am thoroughly enjoying it and can't wait to be preggo with No 3 now! (I reckon I could go No 4 if I could talk DH into it, we are both one of four!)
Hi ladies,DH would dearly love another little pricess,we have 4 boys and 1 daughter.I never thought I would have so many kiddies,but it just grows on you,I was an only child and always wanted a few kids. I would like one more if it`s meant to be, I have found out I have a Liver condition,so fingers crossed it might happend one day before I get too much older, I also feel the wear and tear on my body is catching up,lol. DH was one of 6 kids,he loves a big family,so lucky for me I don`t have to talk him into anything. Best to all with your life `s journey.
We have four and am in the process of deciding whether we want one more. I feel the age gap is too big between no.3 and no.4 so I think Scout will need a playmate to grow up with. We already have the 7 seater car so thats not a problem just gotta talk myself around. Hubby doesnt care he wants a rugby team, but that is never gonna happen.
we have 4 aswell, and I want another, DH hasnt said no but I am still in too minds, my reasoning is also the gap between DS2 and 3 I think he needs a playmate, and the car problem can be solved will have 9 mnths to save for a tarago.
We have 3 winkies and we are going to TTC #4 in March/April 09 I have said thats it after 4 so I hope I will feel happy about it after my 4th.... I have said it was it after my 3rd but I dont feel DONE yet...
does anyone else feel this way and do you EVER feel done?
My mother ( who had 7 ) has always told me that you know when you are DONE I just hope this is true or I might never feel that way... Mind you I dont think BHL would be happy about have anymore as he was happy and DONE after 2.... LOL
Well not long ago we had our DD. So now 1 of each... everyone keeps saying we should stop now we have the perfect pair. But personally i'd like another 1 of each but financially not sure if it would happen. We brought a house only 3 bedrooms so maybe once DD is a bit older we may consider TTC once again... If money wasnt a problem i'd love 6... the more the better... i love kids and they make your life so much better... (ok there can be bad days) .
I always said I wanted 4 or 6 kids...I have 4 now and Im really wanting another one. I dont think I could have 6...but in saying that you never know what will happen in the future.
We have 2 girls. DH and I don't feel complete yet so number 3 is on the cards. It is just a matter of when. DD2 is only 8months old and I am just getting used to having 2 kids. As yet I have not come out of the sleepless haze that I have been living in since Loren was born.
We are thinking ttc sooner rather than later for a number of reasons. 1. I am the last of my friends and family to have kids so I don't want my youngest being too little interact with the other kids, 2. I am not a spring chicken. 3. we are in baby mode and have all the stuf, no need to put it all away if another is comming. 4 I don't want a newborn and have to the school run with DD1 (she starts in 2011) In other words trying to get a kid to school would do my head in if I did not have enough sleep the night before.
Reasons not to ttc soon. 1 Can I really handle 3 little ones at home for a year or so.2. Would love to give bfing a good shot and think if the girls are older I would have more time with a nb. 3 I need to get into shape before putting on any more weight
I I haven't posted for ages so thought I would put my 2cents in. I have just have number 7 and already decided this is not our last. Having a baby in the house is delightful! I think we will just keep going until we/God/our health/other? says enough.
We said #3 would be the last. Now I just don't feel complete still.....i want #4, and maybe #5 (haven't told Dh that much yet! lol). I worry about how I would cope though? I love my kids more than anything and I dont doubt I would be able to love more but I worry maybe 4 is too many? I struggle now to find time for all of them.....
I would like 4 babies - I'm half way there, just trying to get the 3rd. I aways thought 5 growing up would be a great number because my mum's from 5, my bio-dad is from 5 and I am the youngest of 5 from a blended family.
I definately don't want to stop at just 2 - the rest of my family have all chickened out at 2, so I'm the only one left to have anymore. I already have a girl and a boy, and everyone was like, well I supposed you'll stop now you've got the "pigeon pair". Hell no, I want my daughter to have a sister and my son to have a brother.
Looking forward to making and meeting some new souls.
PamyK, I thought that too, and now I have 3 boys and 1 girl, so I kinda don't want to stop! My DD already has a "princess" mentality, so I think we need to try again for another girl! Snap her back into line! lol! Everyone thought I would stop at 2 as well (eldest 2 are one of each!) my mum even said she didn't see me having any kids at all!!
I've been getting quips from my mum (believe it or not) that she wants lots of grandkids just not all from the one person. I mean she had 4 and myself and my brother are the only ones so far to have kids. When this one comes she will have 7 grandchildren. My brother and sil have stopped at 2 and we are not sure if the other sibs will ever have kids.
My DF and I are looking at each other lately saying "what are we doing having this 5th one??????" lol. Our other kids have been playing up so badly and then we think about the ages we will be when this one is like 20 and we just groan (60 for me and 68 for DF) as it is going to take that long for us to have some us time lol. That is if the others don't come home. Might have to move and not tell them the address lol.
