Larger Families Chatter ~ May 2008-May 2009

Hi squidipa, i guess the positive is at least you go tto have one natural and of course your babies all come into the world safely and thats what counts at the end of the day. The only reason i asked is cause i know i struggled after my c-secs, but then i met this woman in hos and she coped just fine after hers. I am fairly certain you can at least have 4 c-secs but after that they do see it as fairly risky. But it is different with each person and some hospitals too. I hope you get to have as many bundles of joy as you want.
Not much going on here just day to day stuff really. We have to get our pool topped up and cleaned so that we can start using it soon. ITs starting to get pretty hot some days.
So has everyone got their kids home on hols now? We are almost finished here and it has been so nice not having the morning rush trying to get everyone organised on time! I dread monday morning, our kids have to be organised to leave the house by 7:50am to catch the bus and some mornings thats a real struggle with the younger ones.
Anyway i best go do some house work (yuck) before it gets on top of me........
Cheers

Hey everyone!

Kat - we just started hols this week, and I agree, it's so nice not to have to rush! Doesn't stop my day from starting at 6am though!!

halltribe - I have told DP that when DD hits puberty, I'm running away from home!! If she's this moody at 4, I don't wanna know what her teens are gonna be like!

So, for those of you with more than 4, HOW did you convince your DP/DF/DH's to keep going??? I know my bub is only 2 months old, but I already know I want more (and it's not money that is the issue) but my DP says he's already not home enough - he doesn't want to lump me with more than I can handle IYKWIM, but I love having the kiddies around!

Hey guys, was just reading all the posts since I've been in here last and boy are there heaps.

Cathie - let us know how you are going.

I can't wait until this one comes out. I have sciatica probs and am now not waddling but straddling when I walk cause this one is really pushing on the vjj lol. My feet and hands are swelling and am just sick to death of being pg. Of course it has gotten really hot too so have to live in the A/Cing. Sorry for the rant ladies but need to vent.

Also DD is going through the terrible 2's early and having tantrums over everything. DF has gone away for nearly a week and I am home alone with youngest DD (other kids with ex for holiday away) and all I want to do is sleep. I no longer have bags under my eyes but the whole set of luggage.

Everyone I meet is telling me I'm going to pop soon as my belly is so huge and bubs is very low. I so hope they are right.

Hi to everyone and hope you guys are doing better than me : (
