We have decided to have another baby. We have three sons aged 8, 5 and 1. It is possible I am pregnant at the moment - waiting to see. I had to tell both my inlaws and my mother that we might have another baby (both for different reasons) and neither reacted well. My mother in law looked shocked and said "but what about your health?" and my mother said I was being selfish and should be happy with the three I have and did I want to be having babies for the rest of my life.
Now, I am a strong minded person and will go ahead regardless. But is this what I am going to encounter all the way along from people we tell once we are pregnant? I remember really enjoying telling people with the first three and don't want this to be a negative for what will definately be the last baby.
What were other people's experience of this?
