Hi, I need some help, I have 4 lovely boys aged 2, 3, 5 & 7 and recently had a shock of my life, I'm pregnant with no. 5 whilst my husband is waiting a vasectomy, Im 41 and he's 48 and are already under pressure with our 4, My husband wants me to take the abortion pill he doesn't think that we will be able to cope, I have a thyroid disease so sometimes I get quite unwell also on my last baby I had a DVT and clot on my lung.
I'm so confused as to whether we should keep it or not, is anybody in a similiar position and can give me some advise. x
Im pregnant with my 5th and also have a thyroid condition. Cant really offer you advice though hun, at the end of the day its a personal decision and you need to do whats right for you and your family. x x

Hi everyone. I'm about to turn 33, my husband is about to turn 37. We have 3 children, daughter who is 9, son 5 and baby boy 1 yr. We are thinking of having another baby before it gets too late. My husband works full time and I work part time (3 days per week). Are you ladies all full time mums? I like working part time and being a mum. I work 3 full days per week but am thinking that with more children it may be too difficult working 3x full days. Maybe if I find something working just up to 3pm so I can collect from school and not have to pay out for after school clubs. Any advice would be great, thank you, Emma.
We can only cope because we own our business so can be flexible. Definitely wouldn't be able to do it working for other people. We're lucky we've got good child care for preschool age kiddos otherwise it would be too stressful. Now on mat leave but was working 3/4 days a week around kids. Very hectic. I couldn't be full time mum though - it drives me barmy!! On the plus side, having 4 is no different from having 3. Its just as mad!! If your employer is flexible it could work but our jobs just didn't fit with childcare (college teaching and RAC) Nic x
Hi I have found out two days ago im having my fifth baby. I have three boys and a girl who are 16, 13, 6, 3. I was waiting to be sterlised. I dont know what to do. Im scared and I didnt want to have more kids. I am also afraid what people might say, especially my mom.I work full time and so does my husband. Am i wrong to feel like this?
Hi guys. I'm having my fourth girl in 10 weeks time and thank god for this forum because I have been getting the most horrible comments and snidey remarks because we were trying for a boy.........we r still happy with it being a girl but because I have a lot of health problems and have to have c sections the more children I have the more I get looked down upon, and it can get lonely thinking that it's only happening to u........but obviously there r just a lot of small minded ppl in this day n age who think having more than 2 kids is causing a problem for everyone when it's our business and no one else's........
when my neighbour found out we were having another one she laffed in my face and said wat if it's another girl? Wat u goin to do then? N I'm like wtf do u think I am goin to do?!?! Nothing!!!!! Il luv her like my other her girls, wat do u want me to say I'm goin to do?! Chuck her in da bucket n try again?!?! serouisly, sum ppl!!!!
I have the same problem with the comments and looks. I am due my 4th any day. I have 2 boys and a girl so far and although this one was far from planned we are still pleased. The remarks and comments range from what are you goingto do? How are you going to cope? What about the hhouse? I also get really ill during pregnancy and am on crutches for really bad spd. As well as other complications. I also have a full time job as a teacher and the commwnts from work are even worse. People are obviously not meant to have big happy families like they used to.
Hi. I have a 10 yr old daughter, 6 yr old boy, 18 month old boy and am expecting baby no 4 on 25th November, I am 20 weeks, just had my scan and found out we're expecting a girl I'm full time mum but quite new to it. I was working but found that because we wanted another baby it really wasn't worth working so I've been full time mum now for couple months and find it very busy!!
I am mother and when my first son was born I thought that it is so difficult to give birth.
That time I thought not another one. But when I saw my son I forgot all the pain. I suppose to give birth is difficult but when you see the baby you forget everything .Iam mother to two sons. Now also I will be happy to have four more
I'd love loads of kids but oh says this one is our last as we have to be realistic about money and space. I hope to change his mind one day but for now just concentrating on this one! X
