Hi, M5. I only have 4 kids (mine are 23,20,16 and 12) but there are quite a few on here with 5 or more - there has been a thread (or two) recently, I'll see if I can find one for you. Congrats on no. 5 anyway

(Weekend evenings usually quite quiet on here so you may not get much response for a while.)

hey mama5, I have three.5 children! aged 13, 10, and 2 and with one due december, sometimes i feel like i have a huge amount of children -dont often see large families when out and about- so i come on here and remind myself its actually quite small I find i have a whole different attitude to bringing up children than friends with just one or two. how about you?

I remember catching sight of all my offspring in a shop window when last one ..now 2.5 was born and theinking 'OMG i have so many'
I love it - all the relationships make our house so much fun. Should not say it but ...do you ever look at small faminlies and think (yawn) 'Dull!'

I have 5. 12, 10, 6.75 and 16month old DTs. Love it. Lots of my friends have 4. Whenever people hear that they freak out. When my BF and I go out we have 9 children between us. She loves seeing the looks on people's faces as this great horde of children surround us when we all go out together.

Love it!
