Feeling attacked as a mum of 3

[Ilikecheeseontoast]

There have been several threads lately discussing families with 3 or more children -how we are selfish for having more than 2, how our children must be starved of attention and love etc etc. I am stupidly taking these opinions personally and it's making me feel crap. I have 3 much wanted, loved and cherished children and with health problems, lockdown etc am finding things difficult at the moment. Does anyone have anything positive to say about having 3 or being one of 3?

Why the hell do people reignite ZOMBIE THREADS?

Well I am screwed then.... my daughter is 2 this week and we thought in January we would try for our second and fell pregnant with twins 🤣#bringonthejudgement

Don't take it personally. I have 14 grandchildren. I've learned never to talk about them to my husband's childless sister, because she doesn't think anyone should have children....

Similar happened here although my daughter was a little older. Never, ever planned three. Also what happens if you conceive triplets or more?

Everyone will have an opinion on you having twins! Especially people who don’t have them telling you about how hard it is.

Congratulations btw and have a happy and healthy pregnancy.
