Just being nosy, you can change your name. Just wondered how many Mumsnet children are unexpected/planned, how common it is. What's your score for surprise babies? Mine's 1/2.

The spacing didn't work as planned, though.

2/3 were planned. Youngest was a lovley surprise, considering DH was on tablets for arthritis that reduce spermcount, and we were only careless once....

1/2.

To be fair, another baby was planned for sometime in th future but I became pregnant when DS was only 10 weeks old

Pinkchampagne · 03/08/2007 09:03

Neither of my boys were planned.
