Thank you everyone for your congratulations.
It's really lovely to have people that I don't even know being positive for us.
We haven't told anyone IRL as we are dreading the comments that we will get. I think some of you know that we have six children already. I realise that is a lot but they are amazing children and even though it wasn't planned there is no real reason to not add another person to our family. DH is an amazing husband and Daddy, has a reasonable job and would do anything for us. We have a big enough house (just), mortgaged but we will get there. I am lucky enough to be a SAHM so don't rely on anyone else for childcare, other than the odd evening out when my Mum babysits. We are always being complimented on how well behaved and polite the children are and on the whole I think we do a pretty good job with them- DH and I make a good team and make up for each other's short comings. Thanks to you guys the children are well fed and clothed, don't really go without anything and what they do go without is more than made up for in love. They are all very proud of each other and love and support each other.
Despite all this I know that we will receive very negative reactions from family. I don't even really understand why.
So thank you for being happy for us, it means a lot xxx
I have aunts on both sides that have 6 so seven doesn't seem that big a jump, ignore any negative comments - as long as you, OH and kids are happy no one else's opinion mattersThere comes a time in every woman's life when the only thing that helps is a glass of champagne ... Bette Davis0 -

Yep didn't work for me eitherLife is a coin, you can spend it anyway you wish, but you can only spend it once.
Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

Rhos, as always you have hit the nail on the head. I'm glad that you agree that having a big, happy family is the best. You are absolutely right in what you say- we may not be rich in 'things' but we are absolutely filthy rich in the important things- the things that money can't buy. I wish I could come to your house. It always sounds so loving and homely. xx
Enterprise, thank you. I am going to quote you when the time comes to tell family- 'At the end of the day one more doesn't make a lot of difference'. You are so right!
nerfdad, we are not far away from you, we could visit you know!! And your nerflets sound amazing, not half as bad as you make out!
Bananababe- your Gran must be Superwoman- what an inspiration!
Bubbs, FC, Damo, Tweets and everyone else thank you for your support. This thread really is the most amazing place to be xx
Thank you to everyone whose advice has helped me in my desperate quest to make ends meet. x
EDIT-Back on the quest, I've been away too long!0
