Before I had DS, I wanted 4 kids. My DH is one of four and was very happy growing up in a large family. I am an only one and my mother thinks you should only have 2!
I found the birth of my DS very hard and had PND. I came through it though and now find it a lot easier and love being a mum. I am pregnant with number 2 and delighted (although nauseous and tired!)
It is premature to be posting on the large familys thread but I suppose I wanted to know if you always set out to have a large family? Did you find your first hard and subsequent ones easier? How do you deal with negative reactions? Can you cope with a large family in a smallish house?
Do tell me to bog off if I am being nosey but I still want hope that I can have the large family I always dreamed of.
Would like to finish by saying hats off to you all and well done for bucking the trend of 2.4 kids!
