4 under 5?

Give me your experience with all this.

How old are your kids? Are you a SAHM? Did you plan to have this many children in this time frame?

Are you still sane?  

Advice for someone who is TTC a 4th baby--what are some of the hardest parts about it? How do you deal with having so many kids all dependent on you at once?

TIA!

Emilee 5...Josh 4....Charity 4....Ezra 1 (2 next month).

Shoot me.

Do you have two more?

Just kidding. I didn't have all of them. The 2 oldest are 2 of my step babies. and the 2 youngest are mine. But we have them all about 90 to 95 percent of the time cause their mommas suck and don't care about their babies.

I love them, wouldn't change them for anything....but Jesus sit down and be quiet for a minute kids!

Baby dust! I said the same thing to my mom tonight. She asked me why on earth I would want another. Dont we all have good days and bad days, regardless of how many kids we have? Doesnt mean we dont want them. I will be grey by the time Im 30 but I love every minute of it! haha

Are you TTC? I agree I'm going to be grey at 30 but hey that's what hair dye is for haha.

yeah I am a little bit. Im still like in shock. lol my two oldest are in school. my youngest starts school in august. I was totally looking forward to a half day free of screaming and arguing. but then again i was sad because I have never been without at least one at home since 2007 lol...

Nah man babies are precious. We have our ups and downs. It took me months to connect with his kids. I had never dated anyone with kids. I moved them in with me. They had such a damn sour attitude towards me.

But look at me now. Joshua cries for me, even in front of his momma lol. Emilee begs me to play with her or do her hair. Beth looks up to me. Hell, I was in that bathroom with that little girl when she got her period for the first time and didn't know how to use pads (cant use tampons cause of kindey problems), and little david is messaging me on facebook telling me he loves me and misses me.

Wouldn't change any of these kids. I love them just like I love the 2 I gave birth to.

Yes...pretty sure my period is coming   but this is our first month trying and we werent really serious about it. We want a November baby, and we like the age gap we have going (they are all 18 months apart---3 1/2, 2 as of Jan 3rd, 6 months) but I kind of just want to let things happen instead of starting ovulation kits and being stressed out...especially since this will be our last!

Totally agree...as long as I can stay out of the nut house Im good to go. Botox for wrinkles, hair color for greys. Hey, they even make a pill for the borderline crazies. We're good to go

Haha, well it will be nice being able to spend alone time with the newbie   when are you due? You're lucky by the way lol...I will have all 4 of mine home at once!
