cosywolf Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Depends if you include the husband, the dog, and at least one grown-up dependent I adore but may as well have parental rights for, lol. I'm not sure you are in the minority, roslynrosie. I seem to see lots of parents with 3 and over. Though I do know several with 2, I guess.

No, i don't tend to get the comments much as there are quite good age gaps between my kids, the not having a tv comment would probably more like the tv was broke that night lol. ones 17 then 12 then 9 and the little one is 4.

cosywolf Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Makes me feel like a coward for fretting about having two! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CathS Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 I think if it wasn't for the fact she had 2 prematurely she'd have more. My parents also come from big families. My mum was one of 7 and my Dad one of 16!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
