On Having 3 kids and more(?)

[Diane]

i super love this thread... life changing talaga to have kids

i have 2 girls (1y/o and newborn) a year gap and yes we were both half hearted when i discovered i was preggy on 2nd.

super hirap kasi hands on na kami sa gabi. pag umiyak yung isa maggising yung isa so pareho ng gising.2 pa lang pero hirap at challenged na kamo esp financially at sa time since we are both working. good thing i am blessed with healthy pregnancy at no fuss (almost no labor) pag manganganak.magastos din lately kasi party ni 1st kid July 7 and kabwanan ko ng July - i gave birth July 20.
if both crying na in the middle of the night, nastress kami then magbibiruan na lang kami na 'sige iyak pa, gagawa pa kami ng babies'
we cant wait till they're toddlers para di hirap umalis at di na sila bitbitin.also love to travel and i cant wait to travel with them too

Nice reading your stories here. ako naman when i was single, i wanted to have 3 kids. But now we have a boy 3yo and a girl 1yo. Unplanned pa nga si bunso. Medyo na-guilty ako kay eldest ko kasi 2 yrs lang gap nila. Hubby has a business and ako naman banker before then he asked me to resign to help him out sa paper works sa business and to tend to the kids na din. We have 2 helpers/yayas. Sa ngayon, i'm satisfied with two kids na. I can't imagine pag 3 sila, saan na pwesto nung isa. Hehe. Kasi minsan nakayakap sila sa magkabilang gilid ko at bed time. I'm 31 na din.

Pero si hubby gusto pa nya ng isang boy kung pwede. Ako naman siguro pag nakalipat na kami sa ipapatayo naming house baka pwede. Yun naman kasi ang biggest goal namin ngayon. I want my kids to have a comfortable life naman.

Count me in! I have 4 girls ages 21, 20, 16, 10 and gave birth a month ago to our bonus baby. I had my girls before I turned 30 so it was never easy kasi same gender silang 4, hindi naiwasan yung sibling rivalry. Dati kung ano yung meron yung isa, meron lahat dapat. Until now actually but since they're older, mas understanding na sila than before kaya no more rivalry hehe. Our 4th daughter was conceived because we're hoping for a baby boy, medyo na-disappoint si hubby nung girl ulit but we're still thankful. Nagka-problem kasi dun sa youngest namin kasi msyadong na-spoiled ng daddy and titos nya, naging brat tuloy and sometimes we can't control her. Financially, we're stable naman because hubby's able to satisfy our needs but of course habang lumalaki yung family, mas marami na yung needs kaya ang hirap mag-budget specially when it comes to school fees etc. so we decided to work na din.

Hindi na sana kami mag-aim ng baby boy but sa family ni hubby, sobrang big deal ng anak na lalaki so somehow I feel pressured, we tried for 5 years but ngayon lang binigay ni God samin. May jealousy tuloy between my youngest girl and our baby boy kasi nga nasanay si ate na sya yung bunso. I hope mag-bago na din eventually. Ngayon mas ramdam ko na yung financial needs ng mga anak ko, yung eldest ko nasa law school kasi, then my second one graduating from college, the third daughter is 4th year HS tapos yung youngest girl still in grade school tapos our little boy's still in NICU because of his heart complication. I'm an almost single mom now, mahirap pero kakayanin naman. Anything for my children is definitely worth it.

Ok samin ang 4 kids, 2 each. Now, we have a 6-month old baby girl. Gusto nya na sundan agad si baby pero ayaw ko pa. Gusto ko ma-enjoy muna ni baby ang pagiging solong baby nya sa side ko.

But Im also considering my age kaya ayaw ko ng masyadong matagal na age gap, keri na siguro yong 2 yrs or less.

Kami magiging 5 kids na this March.    Our eldest is a girl and she's 5y.o then we had our twins (boy and girl) who turning 3 later this year.  Then I'm giving birth to another set of twins, boys naman this time.    Kaya good luck na lang sa amin.  At wala talagang masyadong furniture or gamit bahay naman para naman kahit magriot sila dito eh walang madisgrasya.  Mahirap, magulo pero masaya.

Sis ang saya ng pagbubuntis mo, 3 anakan 5 agad sayang wala kasi kaming lahing kambal both sides ni hubby
