A question for married men with children?

Question

Let's say you and your wife have a 1 1/2 year old at home when she becomes pregnant with twins. How would you feel? Would you be afraid all these children under age 3 will pull your wife's attention away from you? Would you not want anymore children? Thanks!!

Answer 1

I have a 2.5 year old now and if I found out  she was preganat with twins, I would shiit myself, but I would love it.  Twins would be totally awsome.

Answer 2

I'm not a guy, but mine would love the thought of me being barefoot and pregnant with twins... means he would (think) he has control over me.

Congrats!

Answer 3

First of all let me say in my opinion children are a blessing and a miracle not a curse.  Men are natural worry worts.  If he has a job and you guys are ok financially and mentally then it should be fine with him.  But remember it will be a shock but im sure he will be happy and love the fact that hes going to be a daddy again...and again....lol.

Answer 4

Depends on the person to the amount of kids. When 2 ppl agree to have kids, they understand, or should that they made the decision to have kids and kids come first. If spouse feels neglected then they are not involved enough with family and need to give more of themselves.The family unit needs to grow together and to make that happen takes alot of work, but is always worth it in the end.

Answer 5

I'd just roll with it.  I've got three kids within 3 years of each other, #1 turned my world upside down in a good way, #2 was a breeze, #3 was brutal, esp the first 6 months before she started sleeping more than 2 hours at a time.  I've accepted that life is about the family, not about me, and I don't expect attention.  I get oodles of that from my kids.

If I had more energy, money, and a nanny, I'd want more.. but we're maxed out.

Answer 6

Anyone would be stressed out until a routine and schedule is in place... so for a few months it would be EXTREMELY hectic!

I have put my kids ahead of my husband from time to time, but I do try to make it up, and do an extra job at that! I know one time he wanted to watch a movie with just me and of course, our kids weren't having it. So, we watched a family movie, and put the kids to bed a little early, then I grabbed him a glass of red wine and rubbed his feet.

Answer 7

I see family as the best blessing we can have in this flesh life.  i treasure my kids, and i would have more if we had the means to support them.  yes, it does take attention, on both our parts.  i think it would be very selfish of me to think that way.  you just do what you have to, and make time for one another as you can.

Answer 8

I know that would pull a wife's attention away from the man.  She would be too busy with 3 little ones.  However, the couple will have to work around it and get in the time together when time permits.

Would I not want the twins or to not have anymore children after the twins are born?!  Not sure which way you are asking...

After the twins, I would not want any more kids.

I would not wish to not have the twins... I would hope the pregnancy was planned and if so the guys knows there is for sure 1 baby coming so to not want the babies because they are twins is selfish.  

Answer 9

More children h**l yes, that's your blood line and it makes a man feel more like a man coming home to a family and I'm looking.

Answer 10

Divorced with one child but don't mind to have more children if i find the right woman.

I  have never have though that the children will take away time between mom and me. I always put the children before my need.

If you see the children are safe and the mom is happy than you will have lot of happy time. Sorry . talk to much of myself

lol

Answer 11

Divorce would be on the horizon.
