  • Congratulations!

    I have three each 20 months apart (boy, boy, girl); it's hard at the very beginning (in terms of keeping everyone in a clean nappy and fed), but I found very little in terms of jealousy problems because, under the age of 2, children just accept what's going on. OK, so life is a constant parade of mucky nappies for a few months, but it's bearable. They're all really close now and the only real issue is that each of them believes they are 5 and a half, not just the eldest (who really is)!

    It's a great adventure - do enjoy it. And try not to snarl at the little old ladies who stop you in the street to observe 'you've got your hands full there, dear'....

    Wow wicked, my younger 2 are 19 mths apart and its been fine. Two yrs olds are hard work tho it has to be said but as my current 2 yr old is my 4th to go through this phase I kinda know how it goes! Still have a baby to go tho, he wont be one until May bless, so cute.
    Debt free and plan on staying that way!!!!
  • Thank you all for messages:D

    It's all still sinking in TBH. Although No2 was planned, it happened quicker than we thought;), although it is not as scary as the first time around when we found out!

    Just been to Doc's today. EDD is 10 October and I am already(almost) 7 weeks. Somehow I think this pregnancy is going to fly by..

    It is surprising how much you forget in such a short space of time LOL. What the procedures and steps are-couldn't remember at all at the Doctor's:o

    Must get my pregnancy book out-if I ever get a chance to read it.

    Thanks everyone.

    Congratulations. Don't forget to post all the bits that take you by surprise in the
    'pregnancy's best kept secret's ' thread.

    And once again, congratulations.
    I ave a dodgy H, so sometimes I will sound dead common, on occasion dead stupid and rarely, pig ignorant. Sometimes I may be these things, but I will always blame it on my dodgy H.

    Sorry, I'm a bit of a grumble weed today, no offence intended ... well it might be, but I'll be sorry.
