    Me too! I'm afraid of porridge coming out of his ears! :o


    OH and I have been drinking.. I just asked him, having never thought to ask before(!), how many children he wants. His answer? "12" :eek: HA! His more sensible answer is 3... hmmm :cool:

    :rotfl::rotfl:

    Now this is why I won't ask DH about more children!! Benjamin is his 4th and it was hard work getting him to agree to one. There was a point in our marriage where he told me that he didn't want any more kids and we pretty much hit rock bottom for a while. I don't want to go there again if he says no to any more :(

    Although, chatting with the girls today, part of me can't imagine life with another one...but part of me can't imagine not having another one.

    Am I the only one who is undecided?

    Elle to quote a very cool song, 3 it's a magic number, no more no less :D
    I WILL get my 3rd baby mwahahaha (OH says if I suddenly get more 'interested' in him in about a year he's running off for the snip :rotfl:)

    :shhh: I've got a sniper set on a parent facing buggy, saying no more to avoid informing the competition :cool:

    We will definitely have one more - ideally we would like 3 but if we had the money so that I could give up work we would probably have more. I've got a large family so can't imagine just have J.
    Pregnancy & labour was fairly easy first time round but who knows what will happen 2nd time?! I might decide I definitely don't want a 3rd!

  • MFD - I'd love another one but with my history I've had to accept that may not happen.

    SM - I'll have one.

    Be back in a minute just got to go and make an all-in-one chocolate cake for morning.

    I say a buggy with twins in today - one was facing Dad the other was facing outwards. Not sure which one it was though cos I was driving and the writing was too small down the side for me to see!

    You'll have to build it up over a period of time so he doesn't notice the 'extra' interest! :rotfl:

    Where does the time go? :think:
  • Subject of more kids - Yes, because it would be wrong of me to deny Lucy, just because I already have a few. Not yet, too early in the relationship, unless an unforseen incident happens. Finances not an issue and a stable home points to yes, but too early in relationship, but who knows when we will decide to 'go for it'.
