Wow khadija!! I just come on the board since I have not checked it in a very long time. Congrats on your 4th TR baby! Jorden will be 4 in December and he keeps me on my toes. I dont see how you do it with that many. Hard to believe its been 4 years since our surgeries. Best of luck to you.

Congrats on #4. I agree the teenager thing is harder lol. I have a 17,15,14,13 yr old girls then boys who are 11 1/2 and a tr 3 1/2 yr old. I am 15 weeks with tr baby #2. I loved it when the 5 oldest was all little. We went everywhere and did everything. WOW now they are teens ... i need all the help i can get lol.

In my opinion, it is having four teenagers at the same time that is scary. Mood swings, temper tantrums, boyfriends and girlfriends...having four little ones wasn't as bad looking back now that mine are all teens. Believe that, girlfriend, mommy power to you! Congratulations on #4 and lots of good luck for the future!

Sorry to just be getting back to you all. To the mother that has 4, you ask how to I go places. Well having a 1,2 and 3 year old it's not easy. I always let them take turns, only allowing 1 or 2 go with me unless DH is going. He will watch them all when I go to buy the food (witch is once a month unless we run out of something). He also takes 1 or 2 with him when he goes places. I do take them to the park by myself and we have lunch. I make all my Dr. appts. the same day so its one trip. I have no family here and no time to have friends so I have to find a way to make it work. Last week my 1 year old was trying to walk and fell, putting her top 4 teeth through her bottom lip. Dh was working 3 hours away so I has no choice. I put them all in the van and went to the ER. They were all just fine, they sit and didnt move( I think they thought they were going to get a shot. LOL). After that I told them since they were so good we would get something to eat. We went to eat and so many people came up to me telling me how well they were. This made me so happy. Don't get me wrong they do have their bad times to, as all kids do. Having one more will be a little harder. I will have 4 kids under 4, WOWWWWWWW. I run around all day but never seem to get tired. That may change when this one comes. There is always something going on and there is something that always has to be done. They are the love of my life and I would not have it any other way. Best wishes to all. If you need baby dust I will send you as much as you want and wish you the best.

Congratulations! As someone who has no limit to the number of children I'm open to having, it's so encouraging to hear of women who have not only 1 TR baby, but go on and continue to grow their families! Have a blessed pregnancy... enjoy every minute of it!
