Why on earth.....

[mrs_tommo22]

do people in general all ask the same, are you having any more kids? why isnt 2 enough?I have one of each and the thought of more fills me with horror and then people are surprised when i say I not a chance in hell.

One of the recent comments being ' your still so young yet, you have lots of time to change your mind' what on earth makes them think id change my mind for, I have 2 lovely kids and thats all i wanted and with Stephens condition I only just cope as it is.

Why are people obsessed with kids at the moment - concerning me, Im 25 in 2 days time, Im dieting to get my figure back and better then ever and I want to go out and get drunk and have some fun with my friends again as ive turned into a recluse the last few years. And when i say I want to get a life i get funny looks and comments from the mums at school , oh we just stay in, - bully for you, do your thing and Il do mine.

RANT OVER

Someone asked me in the hospital just after I had given birth - about 2 days after - if I wanted more kids. Don't know what it is. My MIL has started on at me all the time dropping hints. I know it shouldn't, but it really does annoy me. Maybe because I am still traumatised from this one

I agree!

It is really annoying when people assume you must want more because you are young.

I get it all the time because between me and OH we have 3 boys, one each from previous relationship and Sam.
All I ever hear is ''Oooh you'll be having another one then because you'll want a girl won't you?''.
Will we?.. It really gets my back up that I must want a girl because we have 3 boys.

I know the feeling hun. People are asking me now about the next one after Pumpkin!! They keep assuming that cos i got preggers so quick after james that i want to keep pushing them out and be some sort of baby making machine for the next xx years!
Worst is Alan who talks about number 3 and i aint even cooked number 2 yet!!! I have told him to get knotted cos i dont want another one after this and want to get a bit of a balance back in my life. I dont think he believes me... hes gonna be in for a loooong wait!!!

I kept getting asked before this one when i was having the next!!! I had no idea what being a mother was like so i really wasn't planning anymore! My OH on the other hand has planned the next 5!!! Yeah, he wishes, if he's gonna push half of them out his bits!!!

 

[lfc_sarah]

And then the next...

I want 3 kids

Like Jen said, i dont want to be a baby making machine
