I have 3 girls aged 10,4 and 1
2007-01-09 08:48:30 · update #1
I have had 4 but one died.
I need a man to have more babies,
I just muddle through,
The trick is to tell them that you are in charge and that's that.
Also I have learnt to only drink at the weekend, purely because of tiredness,
I haven't had a decent nights sleep in nearly 10 years,
And my childrens father isn't allowed any kind of contact due to violence towards them,
How do I cope ??
I believe in myself every second, and I stand my ground,
I make sure that I am organized.
Would I change it ???
No way

I have 4 kids! Aged 8, 6, 3 and 1. Amazing as it may sound it really isn't that hard to cope, although I am calm on the exterior and at boiling point inside sometimes! I would love just one more, but on the other hand I now have some time to myself now three are at school. I think the reason for me having 4 kids is because I was an only child. Also we had all the necessary baby bits to pass on to the next one - so it's not that expensive either -at the moment (that is until they get to teenagers I suppose).

I have 3 children but they are spaced far apart. 19, 9 & 4. Sometimes I think I want another one but I've had high blood pressure for 10 years and the docs say don't have any more kids so these 3 will have to do but my 4 year old is the only boy and sometimes I feel like I'd love to have 1 more so he could have someone close to his age to play with.

I have 2 girls! 7 year old and a 10 month old. They are the most important people in my life! I love them more than I could ever explain. I actually never wanted kids, but I am happy I had them. I do not think I want anymore. But you never know what the future holds......

I have a 3 year old boy. A son on the way at any time ( 38 weeks along) and I would like at least 1-2 more. I would like to see if we can have a girl.

I am stopping at 2 kids, although I hear people telling my wife that "3 is the new 2." Whatever that means. Two is hard enough, so I can't imagine the "zone defense" with 3 urchins. I would feel more financially secure raising 2 than 3, which is my primary reason for stopping here.

I have 3 with one on the way.... fairly close in age.
Oldest ... 7 yrs Girl
Middle 5 yrs.. girl
youngest.. getting ready to turn 3 Boy
Baby boy due in April
I love my larger family and wouldn't trade it for the world. Coping isn't bad.. all of my kids are pretty well behaved and independent. Just make sure to take time for yourself every now and again!

i have 2 girls, they are 6 and 1 and i dont want anymore, 2 is just perfect for me, and im happy ive got 2 girls too, i dont feel i would be able to cope with anymore, and by having more they would have to go without things, i can afford 2 and im happy with that, im one of 6 myself, im 23 and my youngest sister is 2, so a very big age gap, and a very busy family lol. (my dad had 2 with new wife and mum had the four), my mum has four year age gaps, basically got one off to school only to have another, i think thats a mad idea haha
