I don't have any thoughts on it if I'm honest. My aunt has 5 children and I don't think anything of it.

When you TTC again? hehe

Nothing tbh - takes a gutsy lady to have 5 kids I say if its for the love of her kids (reason why she has decided to have the desired many children). Ive seen families with more including 10 & 12 kids

See a Mum dulled up like tart on the piss every weekend getting her regular 'fix' with 5 kids - now thats obvious We all know the kind

well we are not trying but we are not preventing either, Jase is getting the snip on the 14th March, it can take anything from 3 to 9 months after for it to work, we are in 2 minds about having another so we said for him to get teh op but we wont be careful, if it happens then its meant to be, if it doesnt then thats fine too, so we are leaving it up to fate really!

I just worry what people will think if i do catch, i dont want epople to look at me and auto think benifit scrounger etc, we pay our own way and i hate sterotypes

Well, when this baby is born my hubby is going to have 6 kids under his belt. LOL

He has 3 from prior relationship and every second weekend, it's a houseful around here!

Times have changed though and families are cutting down on the number of children. Remember in the old days? My mom was one of 9 and my dad was one of 7. People don't generally have large families anymore.

first thoughts would be they must be well off! My DH is 1 of 4 siblings, and I lived with his family for about 3 years and they took me in as a 5th child basically, so i've lived and "been there". His family is one of the closest and happiest families i know though!
