Anyone a mama of a big family??

Dondonbutterfly · August 2015

We are expecting our 9th child and our oldest just turned 10! 4 girls, 4 boys, no twins, all ours! :-)

We're expecting our 6th! 4 boys and 1 girl so far. Our oldest is 11 and youngest is 1

They're all ours also!

I guess that depends on what you consider a "big family". Everyone I know is treating us like we are crazy. This is only our 4th. I love big families!

My husband and I were just talking about that recently. Like these days 3 or 4 kids is a lot for people. I also love big families but people just don't have them anymore. My favorite parts of my day are when we're all sitting around the table eating. I just love seeing a full table of cute little faces! I so look forward to the many many years of that to come!

Congratz on another pregnancy, I hope you have a H&H 9 months.

I just wanted to point out that the statement "they're all ours also" is really hurtful to adopted children and parents.
I was adopted, and I was every bit "all theirs".

I know you weren't trying to be cruel, so I hope you don't feel like I'm attacking you. Please just pick your wording a little wiser in the future.

Maybe "They all came from my womb!" would work?

Once again, Congratz on your large family!

Edited to just say that I'm sure no one meant anything by it and I actually did have an explication for why I said that. I changed my mind because I feel like your drive by post was just trying to start drama. Have a h & h pregnancy.

You all are so blessed. I would love a large family.

We are having our second baby now. My husband says our house is too small for a large family. 3 bedrooms but they are good sized. Does anyone mind me asking how you do your kids rooms? Do they all share a few rooms or how do you do it?
Thanks ladies

We have 11 & 8yr old boys in 1 room, 9yr old girl "just HAS to" (lol her words) share a room with 2yr old little brother and a 1yr old sharing a room with my husband and I. Shortly before the baby comes my daughter will have her room to herself and the 2 & 1yr old will move into a room together. Baby will be taking the 1yr olds place in the room with us as I will be bf. Hope that made sense.

I have 3 girls(18, 13 &7) and 1 boy(10). Up until last year my 18 year old had her own room, my 12year old daughter and 9 year old son shared a room and my youngest slept in my room. Now that my son, only boy, is 10 we rented a 4 bedroom so he has his own room for privacy. Now my 13 year old and 7 year old girls share a room. This baby will stay in my room for the first year or so at least.

I am expecting my 5th as well, 3 boys and 1 a girl right now, and even though 2 are adopted, they are still "all mine". Not too sure what the comment means. There is more than one way to have a family.

We're expecting #12 in our home in March 2016! 8 boys ,3 girls, 1 set of twins in our last pregnancy. It's just one baby this time, (phew). Hoping for a girl! Good luck!
