Who has 3 children that are under the age 6?!?! I am really thinking about wanting one more baby?

Question

But, I have like 2 or 3 semesters left to I have my associates, and want to get a good job, and of course we would definitely need a bigger place. And then there is the whole weight gaining. I am trying a diet now and want to lose some weight! So, should I wait like a couple years?!?! My hubby would probably love another one, lol.

Answer 1

i have a 7 month old, a 4 1/2 year old and a 6 year old. The older two we have every other week cuz my husband has joint custody and no child support. My husband and I are already trying to have another baby because we love children so much and he has a great job. I have lost 42 of my baby weight plus 27 more on the atkins diet. You can still do the diet while you are preg. but u at least need 120 carbs a day. Read the book. Its excellent. I have been doin the diet for 2 months. You re add carbs back into your diet at each phase. HEALTHY CARBS (veggies, fruits, some whole grains). Avoid sugars at all costs and read labels! Lean protein like meat and cheese are the best to eat. Also avoid fast food. When I get pregnant again I want to gain no more than 25 lbs and I am pretty sure i can do it. I also excercise now too which is healthy. You should too! As for school, it might be more stressful with a baby, but I am doing it. I have a semester left of student teaching and then im done and will just sub sometimes because I want to be home with my two youngest for some time. The older two will be both in school next year and it sounds like at least one is in school and the other might be able to go to preschool next year? Anyways, good luck! :)

Answer 2

I myself do not have but one child(5 months old).I do not plan to have anymore for a few years but my brother and his wife had all their children close together.They have 5 (one deceased) the ages are 6,5,3 1/2 & 1..It was rough on her I know but she said she likes that they can all grow up together and have each other.She really likes that they are so close in age too.Yes it is hard and sometimes she feels like she is going to go nuts but she wouldn't change anything about it.Only you know if you are ready for another baby.I would definitely take finances and everything into prospective too.

Answer 3

  as  long  as  you  can  take  care  of  them;I  don't  see  why  not

Answer 4

My four kids are teenagers now.  When my oldest was 6, I also had a 5, 4, and 2 year old.

If you are seriously thinking about another child, stop trying to lose weight.  It will frustrate you if you get pregnant.

I was lucky enough to be able to stay home with my kids.  I believe you should sit down and figure out if realistically you can pay for daycare, a bigger place, and the expense of a baby.

I know I didn't give you a definitive answer, but it a decision that only you and your husband can make.

Answer 5

We have 2 kids under that age.  We have a 6 yr old, and a 5 yr old and a baby on the way.  We also have a 10 yr old.  Yes we have a full house.

I would wait and finish school now, you may not be able to return to school for a while if you have a baby now.  Plus losing weight before you get pregnant is good for you.
