this is #4 for me too. my current youngest is also a march 2004 baby.

i have 2 boys (5.5 and 4), and my dd is 19mos. Totally caught off guard by this preg. We must have celebrated our 7th anniversary to well (conception date). I'm secretly starting a vascectomy fund for dh. I'm sure I can count on some family members to contribute :thumb

But, i'm am excited and looking forward to this newest member :throb

This is my fifth pregnancy...I currently have two living children.
So, I guess the answer for me would be "No."

:love

Jackie, I'm so sorry about your lost children. I hope this time is a stellar success for you. :love

What do you suppose constitutes a large family. I don't consider us to be large, but I know many people who think we are a large family with only 5 of us. It doesn't feel large to me, just normal. :lol

i don't think we have a large family either. i know enough other family's that have more children. family's who's lifestyle i love and respect.

maybe it's a big family when you can't fit all of them in your car? i still be able to drive my car and fit all my children. when it's dh too, it's going to be a tight squeeze (as he or i will be sitting where the console is up front..middle, but it has a seatbelt).

my oldest is excited. he keeps saying were going to be a family of 6.

This will be my 3rd, but it doesn't really feel large yet. Maybe it is b/c dh's family is LARGE. His mom was 1 of 12...you get the idea:)

Don't know - what's "large"? This is #4 for us. Lots of folks think that's big but our friends who have 12 think we're just starting out. :lol

This is my 6th pregnancy. I have one living child. I just had a stillborn this past Septmeber, whom we named Jase Orion. Before the loss of Jase me and my husband decided to have one more. That would give us three children. After Jase, my husband decided to tell me that he'll give me all of the children I wanted, which I guess he decided will be five more. He told me he wanted the Brady Bunch!!! After talking, we agreed on having three more, so will have a family of Mom, Dad, and hopefully 3 boys and maybe one girl, even though I would be very happy with all boys ( he wants a girl). So were off to hopefully have another boy this time.

Love everyone and GOOD LUCK!!!!!
