Hi hope everyone is ok. If you didn't know i had my 4th baby 4 weeks ago and she is wonderful. As soon as i ha her i said i would like to try for number 5, i just thought the feeling would go away when i came down from that nautral high after birth but it hasn't! Am i mad or do/did any of you feelthe same??

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, I would be lying if i said i dont feel that way lol.
    I have a 12 week old to go with my other three and yes I felt like it and still do BUT hubby is going for the snip in a few weeks as we just cannot afford another one ( saving for our own house!!!) and the temptation to be a little naughty some nights is just too much for hubby to resist!!!

    So no I dont think your mad, I just think some of us are just happy to keep having kids etc......I would have more but its just not good for us anymore. 4 is our limit sadly xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

    I'll put my hand up... my fourth is five weeks old and I can't believe how much I'd love another. Baby boys are awesome! I am hoping to give my body a year to heal and get it's strength back, while I appreciate they aren't super close together having four in five and half years has left my body feeling it, and my pelvic floor needs some sort of bootcamp... but I am really hoping in a year's time I'll feel like my body is in a good place to conceive again.

    i felt I NEEDED number 5 to feel like my family was done. I do feel complete now and am totally happy to stop at 5.

    After I had my third I felt exactly the same way and we are trying for our fourth now. I think i would keep going and going if i could LOL!!! Unfortunately I have been really unlucky and have had to have three C sections. Hopefully I will be pregnant again soon so will be having my fourth C-section and then I know I wont be able to have any more babies. Really gutted about that!! Fingers crossed, maybe I'll end up with twins this time. Mind you that would be really scary!!!! LOL
