Can honestly say, I feel so blessed. It's crazy hard work, but the best thing ever.
I am ready for another already :P
Glad to hear you're loving motherhood so much! It certainly is hard work, but the best thing ever :) I could go again, but hubby doesn't want any more kids :( We'll see in a couple years if I can convince him lolQuote:

With DS4 it was almost a year until my firehose boobs settled down and he got over his sore tummy, was a nightmare :/
She's rolling now and started giggling. She's such a smiley baby too. Her brothers get so excited when she smiles at them :) My 3 year old shushes her when she cries and brings her toys. He even picked out her outfit for today lol. I hope they'll be close when they're older.
@mummy you should try to give your daughter probiotica (lactic acid bacteria). This should help with stomac-issues. I have used it to my daughter from 2 weeks and she have never had any tummy troubles like her older brothers had from newborn.
Motherhood is great and I am still in disbelief that my daughter is her 3,5 month old today. She grows so fast and is so nice and easy. It's like a dream come true [emoji120]❤️ Her 3 older brothers are so good to her and want to sleep next to her in our big bed. Breast-feeding goes well. She wakes up to eat two times at night and sleeps well both night and day. I attend baby swimming which she enjoys. The days goes so fast and I feel so blessed.
@mrssparkles, Wow you are ready for another one. I got my second son just 13 months after my first was born. They have a lot of fun together and are very close. Can really recommend to have babies with close age gap. It's hard but also fun.

Thanks Dreamsister I'll look into it. I'm taking strong probiotics myself ATM..would it pass through breastmilk to her?
DS1 and DS2 are 15 months apart and if I had to do it again I'd wait longer! Lol. It's a real love/hate relationship with these two. One minute they're fighting like crazy, then the next they're in the same bed asleep next to each other..weirdos haha! They're so competitive it drives me nuts!! But I don't know if that's just boys in general regardless of age gap lol.
@mummy, I don't think it passes through your milk. You should give your daughter probiotics for newborns. Here there are called Bio Gaia, from Semper. I give my baby five drops per day. I also give her vit d-drops.
Hope it helps [emoji4]

Soo hubby has been adamant that Isobel is definitely our last child..yesterday he asked me if I was serious about maybe wanting another in a year or two as I'd expressed my desire to sway again and hopefully give her a sister one day...and he didn't say no! He'd consider it :omg: :D
Looks like we may both be on the TTC train again soon !Quote:

Hi Sparkles and Mummy,
I think about the next baby often too. We will probably start trying when baby #1 is a year old. I haven't decided yet if we will sway. I can't decide if I would want another girl so Hazel has a sister or if I would want a boy so I get one of each. Maybe I won't sway and just see what happens, but understand swaying now I think it would be hard not to sway because I will already know if my lifestyle sways more boy or more girl.

Wauh @mummy, I am impressed that you are considering another after five kiddos. [emoji106][emoji4]
Five is already a lot. My grandmother had 7 kids (6 girls and my father as her last at the age of 41), but she did not need to have a paid work outside her home like I need. If I was married to a rich man and could be a housemom I think I would also want a fifth child and sway again...
I guess for many woman the baby-desire first dissapear when you reach menopause.
I Enjoy my babygirl 150 pct. because I know for sure she is my last...
