Just found out I am expecting baby number 6!!!

I know what you mean. We do not get any goverment assistance, we just spend wisely or do with out. No my kids do not have every single electronic gadget out there, and in our opinion they do not need them! I do not get as much crud as my husband. The other day in Walmart a women walked up to him (he had three out of the 5) and said oh two too many huh? He said no, two too few. She glared and walked away. I get a lot of older people that praise me for being willing to have a large family. Is it difficult at times of course! Days can be down right insane. I am currently in college to get my teaching degree so that my schedule will fit around the childrens schedule once they are all in school. I think some people are just meant to handle one kid and others can do more.
Thanks!!

Congrats on # 6!   I just had my second band baby 3 weeks ago.  Both pregnancies I kept 2cc's in my 4 cc band.   I don't keep my band tight to start with, so I think that's why I was able to keep from being unfilled.

 Thanks, I have never had a tight band, couldn't  say I have ever had restriction yet, I have lost over 100 pounds so something must having been helping out huh?! LOL.

Congratulations on baby number 6! I just delivered number our 7th January 29th. Our 4th girl. So three boys and four girls, and when I am asked (as I always am) "are you going to have any more"? or my favorite "your done now right"? I always say I am not sure what the final score will be but right now the girls are winning. :O) This family isn't something I micromanage. All of my kids are blessings and having had to take fertility treatment to get number 4 after 3 1/2 years of trying has made me welcome 5, 6 and 7 that came along with no fertility treatments as the amazing gifts they are. My life would not be complete without any of them and every day I wake up I try and make sure they know how important each of them is. It is great to meet other people who are raising bigger families. I wish I had advice about your question but I am had a RnY in 2004. I have had 3 post op babies.
Good Luck and Best Wishes for a Happy and Healthy 9 months.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!  I am pregnant with #4 a boy. I will have 3 boys and 1 girl. I have already told my husband that I am not going to get my tubes tied after this one. I really would love to have another girl. I do realize that it's whatever God gives you, but I have always wanted to have a large family.  I also think that each child is a blessing from God.I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy!!
