DH said, just wait are you really sure they've to go to the charity shop? Would you not be better putting them up the loft until DD3 is a bit older - just in case

I may get my 4th one yet

hi dizzy (it's soph28)
I'm definitely stopping at 3- two of my friends have had 4th recently and it seems a nightmare!

dID I don't have that many matty clothes that are worth saving tbh as they've been through 3 rather heavy pregnancies so are much the worse for wear
most got the bin, just a couple of tops and a couple of pairs of trousers worth saving

hi soph28!!! how are you getting on?

I've always had a hankering after 4 girls and it might be considered rude to stop at 3

remembering that DD3 is only 22wks - I may yet change my mind ll

ah- so throw the lot and then you'll end up expecting again. Boy next time and you'll have to even the sides out won't you?

You sure about that?

I have 4 dds and it's great (hard work I admit!!) but I'm not trying to persuade you or anything....downside is I now want 5 and no I'm not looking for a boy, just a healthy baby (sorry it's usuallt the first comment everyone makes and I'm becoming terribly defensive!)

lol misdisorganised, I was at the stage of punching people when they were asking me if I was trying for a boy when I was pregnant with DD3. I love my girls and have nephews and godsons etc so have plenty of boys in my life too

definately think 4 would be my limit though so well done you

tis one of the main reasons I married him solo!!!

now don't be getting too excited ladies, DD3 is still only 22wks - there will no doubt be lots of changed minds between now and then

Just wait, in 6 weeks we'll have a thread from you proclaiming number 4!

thats not even funny, my poor nips are still being chewed on, I think they'd leave me if number 4 was so close behind!

I have 4dd's and it is marvelous dd3 was only 4mo when i found i was expecting dd4 so it has been quick succession but 4 seems no harder than 3.

no, she's 22wks now so if I was the same as 4andnotout I'd be preggers by now or am I missing the point completely?!

OP posts:
differentID · 06/01/2009 21:16

are you completely confident you aren't?

If you got pregnant tonight, let's say, then dd3 will be 7 weeks older than Olive's dd3 was.
