    4 under 4.5 years?

    Hi all

    Just wondering if anyone here has 4 kids under the age of 4.5? just wondering what it was like if you did it, and if you wouldn't ever do the same if you had the chance - ie, would you have a bigger age gap between them.

    Thanks

    I just think its funny how many people assume I'm actually having sex... ROFL

    Believe me, if you saw the bed situation at night, you would know how far off that assumption is to actual reality....
    Besides - this is ALL hypothetical...

    I am sure you would manage if it happened???? I would say wait a bit longer, it won't be so much of a blur of nappies and sleepless nights..nice to enjoy a baby I reckon. I'II have 4 under 6 years and thats busy enough.

    Thanks Pam - nice that someone answered my question instead of teasing me

    lol

    I'm already in a blur of nappies and sleepless nights and have been for the last 3 years, so I don't know whether its best to keep going with what I'm used to, or have a break and then die when I'm chucked back into sleepless nights again! LOL

    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!

    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
