[adventuremom]

I have 3 girls and 3 boys. I am done, hit menopause and cant have more but would have. Happy with the ones I have got though. Ages 18, 17, 15, 13, 10 and 7.

[FoodieMum3]

I'd love to know if any of you are still around and have added to your families since 2013?

I've 3 DC, so not quite sure that's enough to be considered large. Dd, Dd and Ds

[Indantherene]

[diege]

bopsX3 I have 3 dds (12, 12, 8) and then had 3 ds's (4, 2 and 6 weeks). Was very surprised to have a ds after 3 dds, but seem to be on a roll now . Interested (in a purely theoretical way as we are 'done') if I would start again with dds!

[melmo26]

Can I join too please.
We have 4 dds
Dd1 5 dd2 4 dd3 2 dd4 8mo

No more here as dd4 had a stroke at birth.

[BopsX3]

Hi, I don't have a large family (yet) but just out of interest, how many children of one sex did you have before you had a child of the opposite sex? (Hope that makes sense )

Just because I have 3 boys, who I love very much. However, I'm dying for a daughter. I know it's all totally random and everyones different but just thought itd be interesting to find out

(Sorry for gate crashing)

[hottea7]

I have 6, they are 11, 7, 5, 3, 19months and one week, dh has said no more :(

[mathanxiety]

5 here.
4 DDs and one DS. DS is DC2.
They are - almost 12, 15, 18, 20 and 23.
Two redheads, two brunettes and one blondey; all blue and blue-green eyes, pale Irish skin, freckles - some more, some less.
I feel I've sort of retired from the really active bit of parenting at this point, or maybe I'm just a zombie on autopilot. I've been a single mother for six years now.

[MultipleMama]

DH has a great job and a new promotion. And he works in finance so he's great with money. We sell to buy with a lot of things i.e sell things/products and with that money we buy the product we want. Luxuries are saved up for, Xmas etc are bought throughout year. I'm on maternity leave and have 2 jobs that are done online which I get paid for. And our child fees etc will be paid for from my trust fund when we move.

DH keeps everything on a tight leash and we're practical especially on those tight months. We struggle and manage some months.

[NAR4]

To be nosey. How do those of you with 6 or more manage financially? I ask because we would love more but just can't afford it. Don't think we could stretch to running a 9 seater, for example. Are lots of you self employed or do you simply pull your belts in tighter?
