And whats wrong with that?! :rotfl:

I sometimes find it hard to believe that I'm already a Mummy of 2 :eek: but I wouldn't have it any other way! :happyhear.

She's already 3 months gone which means they were ttc when LO 5 months. My LO 4 months and that is the last thing on my mind right now!! I'm not really coping with one. I have so much respect now for mums in general, let alone mums of more than 1. I dont know how you manage! xx

I've taught more than one set of children with only 10 months between them It means for a couple of months each year they are the same age. One of the mums told me that it's sometimes difficult to explain that they're the same age but not twins and another mum was telling me people think she has the date of birth wrong, as her children were both born the same year, one in January and one in November. I've even known two who were in the same year at school but not twins - one born in September and one the foloowing July.

My age gap is four and half years, then nine years. People who have close together babies have my utmost respect - I couldn't do it!

OMG I definately couldnt have had another LO that quick:eek: Not sure if we will have another one, I guess I need to bring the subject up with OH but am now getting settled back into work with more responsibility but not getting any younger (now 37)

We gave Henry our spare mouse but he still wants the one connected to the computer, I guess its cos that one actually makes the screen move...

I've heard of this a few times, it's known as Irish Twins. Very scary, the thought of having another now and DS is 18 months old, still scares me, I do want more, but no idea when I'll feel ready to.

Alice likes to sit at them computer pretending to type and randomly clicking the mouse. I only let her do it when the computer is off though otherwise the computer ends up with random weird things done.

Rhys has done stuff to our laptop we have no idea how he managed it, and it takes me forever to work it out when I'm trying to do it. He also has a habit of pressing the power button and switching it off, and playing with the CD drive. Something is going to get broken at some point, but DH insists on keeping it out all the time.

:eek::eek::eek:
they can't have had "normal" births surely?? I wasn't comfortable when we attempted to resume normal service after 4mths and put it off until Chris was 6months!
I just can't under stand why u would be getting jiggy so soon, did they have a nanny or something, My mind is boggled:rotfl:

but on the closeness note Britney Spears' boys have an age gap of 364 days I think the 1st was born 10th sept and the 2nd on the 9th sept the following year

I would have thought it more likely than a Caesarean as surely the major abdominal surgery bit would make it hard to get back to it in the first few weeks?
