    i would like to say as being a mum of 4 and twins on the way #4 was the hardest for me as i had up until beau really good babies had no problems what so ever good sleepers and feeders but with #4 he was everything i had never experienced awake every hour to feed and didnt settle to sleep unless his dad put him to sleep so he couldnt smell my milk i was a complete mess i didnt think i was ever going to smile again i was that stressed but when he 1st smiled and laughed i knew it was all worth the hardship and around 3 months we finally had him all sorted and knew what he liked and disliked and i tell u at just over 2 he is still a individual no one messes with him or his belongings haha but i wouldnt change anything for the world. hardest part is deciding am i ready for another child i didnt have that choice and i found we all cope with what we are given. even though i feel like my house has been taken over by gremlins somedays but the other days i cant stop smiling and laughing at the silly things they do and say if it wasnt for my children i think i would be lost and i am glad they have each other as i am a only child and my dh is of 1 of 6 siblings and i love how they all get along. the bad comes with the good and the rewards are great ...

    Thanks again girls. Im content with keeping on trying till middle of next year. I dont intend on being this old f**t having kids so June/July is when i stop if we havent concieved before then. I truly believe that if its meant to be then it will happen. If it doesnt then thats ok to, at least we have given it a go.

    FionaJill keeps saying she could see me with 3 so soon see if her vision is correct, Lol. She is a wise young owl.

    Thank you for your response Cheeki! Your reply is very helpful, and I appreciate your frankness. I am having quite a difficult/emotional struggle at the moment......and really appreciate EVERYONES responses - particularly from those of you that have had 4 close in age - because it is very helpful to me.

    Many thanks again,
