    Hi Ladies,

    I am trying for number 3 as well. My son is almost 4 and my dd almost 2 and a half. Not sure how long we have been trying for-I came off the pill in June last year but we had a TTC break after a chemical pregnancy in August. We've been back on the TTC horse so to speak for a few months now.

    Here's to our BFP's being just round the cornerimage

    Sorry to g/c as we're only TTC number 2, but thats horrible James16!
    I can't believe they are asking you that! What's it to them if you have another baby? I personally want 2 boys (already have 1 son) and although I only really want 2 children I know if I had a girl next we'd probably have a third just to try for another boy!!
    Don't know why but thats really got my goat!! Oooh! I hate it that people think a family is "complete" with one of each - its down to each individual family as to when they feel complete!

    Sorry, rant over! image
    PS so sorry to hear about your m/c as well, hope you get a sticky bean soon! xx

    Yeah james16- I have had comments too. My family are great and I love them-but I have had comments too. Oh well, I know they will love the baby once it's here-people always seem to have an opinion on how many children you should have etc, seems weird to me, I would never pass comment on others situations!

    hi katy jo is it hard work with 3 or is it easier x

    Hiah,

    At first it was grand no difference really, no extra help needed or anything, but in my opinion i think toddlers to older children are much harder work than babies I think I could deal with far more babies together (if they were as good as my own 3 were like :lolimage but im not sure i could manage many more older kiddies!! now they able to play together & talk & walk, sometimes its a bit of a nightmare! The girls play nice alot of the time but there are fights & I find that there is usually one left out usually my son. Im finding It's getting tougher as they are getting older. I was told by a few mothers of 3 before i got pg with DD3 to have 2 or 4 but dont have 3 they all said the same - theres always 1 left out.

    funny I put a post on the large families forum ages ago to ask did mothers of 4 agree with that & the majority of them said yes! if you look at my other topics you should find that post.

    Saying that if i had just 2 im sure they would fight, tell tales & get on each others nerves too!!
