How did your older kids deal with it?
How did it affect family holidays and days out?

We decided after dd4 was born that we’d like to wait a few years then have two more.
However, I’m worried that we’ve left it too late.

The girls are now 8, 9, 11 and 13 and I worry about how having more children now will affect them when they will already be dealing with starting high school and becoming teenagers.
But I don’t want to be pregnant or trying to conceive much older than I am now.

I’m also concerned about holidays and family days out as we’re a very active and outdoorsy family and I feel like we’ve only just got to a point where all the girls can join in and enjoy themselves equally.
