Aww wish i had loads of kids, i just have 2 and would like 4 or 5, problem is i hate being pregnant!

A friend of mine is pregnant with number 7, she has 5 boys and 1 girl and is keeping this one a surprise.

Awww vito that's lovely that your friend isn't finding out this time, I didn't on my last and it was very special :)

I reckon you should have just one or 2 more... I don't have great pregnancies either and end up a non-walking mess with SPD/pgp but I wouldn't stop me having 10 more!!

Bit late to this but we have 4 under 8s, 2 boys and 2 girls. Our youngest is 3 and 8 months, so very close together!!! We found it very hard when they were all very young but now that the youngest is nearly 4 it is amazing and they are all very close (although we have lots of arguments too!)

Dd is 18
Ds almost 16
Ds almost 10

I was 44 when I had youngest, am now 46 and still hoping mother nature might be kind to me in the shape of a last minute bundle ( you can dream right? )

I recognise a few names on here :)

Nonotthatagain · 10/05/2013 21:13

another one with 4, DS 18, DD1 16, DD2 15, DD3 14 - would have had another but started late (& DH said no)

Hassled · 10/05/2013 21:14

A mere 4 here, but well spaced out - I take my hat off to those of you with 4 or more close together.

Jojay · 10/05/2013 21:14

Just the 4 here, DS 6, DS 4, then DTD and DTS 21 mths.

I love them all to death but I am SO over being broody now. No more!!

ClairesTravellingCircus · 11/05/2013 10:48

4 here too dd1 dd2 dtd dts

I still get broody despite the fact I havent had a full nights sleep in 15 months!

But the risk of having twins again is enough to make it go awayGrin

Waves back to cherry we are all good thank you. Relocated to the west midlands last year. It's working out well.

DwellsUndertheSink · 11/05/2013 22:07

i have 5 currently - 4 boys and a girl. 3 are mine, 2 are fosterlings. age range 16-2

lookingforbaubles · 11/05/2013 22:22

officially 5 but add in 2 girl friends and a besty friend who seem to live here makes 8

not some thing i had considered when they were younger, 5 dc actually results in 10 for breakfast/lunch/tea!

MMollyMum2 · 18/05/2013 09:15

I have 3 at the moment and pregnant with 4, 5, and 6.

Mrpip · 19/05/2013 07:13

5 here. 4ds and 1dd. I've been surprised how many others have the same combination. Everyone assumes we were waiting on a girl as dd is the youngest but that was never the case. I'd love one more but my body is no longer willing!

2old2beamum · 19/05/2013 11:52

11 here 45-7 Only did rudies for the eldest 3 Grin the others arrived via the front door which is now locked and bolted!
