I should imagine chatoic, noisy and expensive - like 4 only more so Grin suupose it depends on the age gaps

Hope someone with more information is along soon

Lol noddyholder our parents are jw's so they don't do Xmas. Not sure how mum didn't have a breakdown after finding out number 12 and 13 were going to be born next year in the space of 1 day lol.

noddyholder · 29/10/2011 14:28

Thats what they have told you lot

misdee · 29/10/2011 14:30

am a little worried with 16month age gap.

SparklyGothKat · 29/10/2011 14:31

I had a 15 month gap with dd1 and dd2. You'll be fine sis Wink Grin

Yorky · 29/10/2011 14:40

Congratulations misdee, think we were on AN thread together for your number 4, seem to have missed one somewhere! My #4 is also due in April :)

4madboys · 29/10/2011 14:47

CONGRATULATIONS MISDEE AND SPARKLY!!! fabulous news :D :D are they due at a similar time? how lovely to go through preg at the same time and have them close in age if so, it will be great, you will both be just fine Grin

slightly jealous emotion also

SparklyGothKat · 29/10/2011 14:49

Missed is due April im due in July (very early days for me)

4madboys · 29/10/2011 14:58

well i think its lovely for both of you :) fingers crossed everything goes smoothly for you both xxx

SparklyGothKat · 29/10/2011 14:59

I have been pregnant with misdee once before and once with lisad123. Was lovely and looking forward to it.

4madboys · 29/10/2011 15:03

so all 3 are on mn then? i knew you two were sisters and i think i knew lisad was sisters with misdee, which obviously makes her your sister as well, only being daft i hadnt clicked Blush

my sister is having her first, due in jan! i am very excited to be an aunty for the first time and slightly sad that i wont be having any more :( but 5 is enough unless we win the lottery and i can have a huge house and a cleaner Grin

www.mumsnet.com/Talk/mumsnet_classics/1287943-You-know-youve-had-too-many-children-when?pg=1 you two may find this thread helpful! its really lovely, def one to be saved :)

Lulumama · 29/10/2011 19:18

woowwwwweeeeeee ! congratulations to misdee and sparkly.. lovely news

misdee · 29/10/2011 20:18

Lol I commented on that thread 4madboys.

I am very lucky as tonight 2 of my neighbours have my big three girls on sleepovers. Apparently they are well behaved girls and always welcome so am doing something right with this parenting lark.

OP posts:
4madboys · 29/10/2011 21:01

aww thats good, we get comments like that as well, esp with 4 boys people are always suprised by how polite and well behaved they are, as if i would have feral children?!! Hmm mind i have just been told on mn that i have relegated my youngest son toa life of crime and drug use as we called him rudi...

harrygracejessica · 31/10/2011 22:10

Ive only got the 5 so cant comment on 6 lol, I think alot of it depends on the age gaps - I had all mine in 4 year and 1 month so quite frankly it bloody knackering :-)

dottyaboutstripes · 01/11/2011 11:39

I have 6 and I am drowning in laundry. And "stuff". But it's all (well - almost all) good :)

Congrats!
