Hi I'm 35 and a mummy to 3 incredible boys. I'm not going to lie im completely overwhelmed as where to start on all of this. We are still deciding whether to have a fourth and final child. The decision will be to have another child first and foremost but I won't lie that I would be so happy to have a girl.

I'm very fertile and have been lucky enough to conceive on the first try with all three boys- whether that would chnage as im slightly older. I'm of the opinion that if im going to try i may as well go all out but there are a few things which worry me.

Firstly - skipping breakfast - looking after 3 boys, being a teacher and suffering from low iron are all factors that I worry about with this, I think I my pass out as I suffer from fainting. Would I really have to work out every day?- how do people fit this is with their children and jobs? Are there any other alternatives to drinking coke?- my body can't take it And aches all over. .
Please help, I dont know where to start!
Thank you.

Hi and welcome!

You don't have to skip breakfast. It's just one thing that may help a bit. If you can't do it, that's totally up to you. You may want to try eating just pure protein or just pure carbs at breakfast (you can mix them at other meals). Above all else you must put your health and well being ahead of swaying.

Exercise has been a very good tactic for us (better than skipping breakfast) but again, if you can't, you can't. I didn't and I got a girl. Some people have older kids or don't work or a thousand different things that may make it easier. IF it's too hard and disruptive, leave it out.

Why do you think you have to drink Coke???? You don't.
