LOL
My boss and his wife decided to go for kid number two when kid number one was only a few months old and they ended up with triplet boys. so 4 boys under the age of 2. Then they decided to go for a girl. I said they were nuts and might end up with a basketball team, but they got their girl.

Where is the gun to head emoticon? DH's cousin has two sets of twins... 4yo girls and a 1.5yo boy and girl. The cousin is a twin, as is her grandfather (FIL's mom's brother). If I were a girl in that branch of the family I'd just go ahead and have my tubes tied.  |

umm- in case you missed it.
“I didn’t really expect to be getting that kind of news again,” Megan Haggerty, 30, tells Yahoo Parenting. “But I was also like, I’ve got triplets, twins will be a breeze!” Also in the family are Haggerty’s three children from a previous marriage — girls ages 6, 8, and 10 — and a 2-year-old girl she had with her now-fiancé, Clyde Bodge. He’s currently on stay-at-home-dad duty with the four youngest since being laid off as a heating-and-air-conditioning technician in February, and he’ll add twins to his load come July.
That will make it 9 kids under the age of 11.

Now I want the gun to the head emoticon... The YM part of me is wondering how she is financially able to keep 9 kids and a SAHD taken care of.  |

Oh my freaking Lawd have double mercy. That guy will be begging, pleading and praying to go back to work. No HVAC repair will seem tough by comparison. And of course twins will seem like a breeze. He'll be the SAHP.  They have seven, so what's two more? These parents won't get a good night's sleep for the next 25 years. All those girls, all those hormones in one house! Run Clyde, run!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Just kidding, Clyde. You better stay there and man up.) |

If we're being honest, this doesn't bother me because the babies I like best belong to other people. And this whole big mess will belong to someone else.
I liked mine OK and did my best to keep them alive (and oddly enough they were the only babies that ever smelled "right" to me), but the baby stage IMHO sucks. Guess I'm weird but I'm that way about puppies and kittens, too. They're cute and fun to be around for about 10 minutes, then I'm glad they're not mine. |

There's no way anyone will be going back to work. Daycare will cost a fortune. I've never heard of an HVAC person bring laid off so there's more to that story. She sounds as insane as he does. How many kids do you really need?

Oh hell no! I would want to be put out of my misery too! I can hardly handle two kids sometimes. I can't imagine 9!

I have no words....or no nice words
She looks super young in the photo too. Wonder if they are hoping to be the next duggars.
ETA - the article says 30, so not as young as I thought, but still young to be having your 5th & 6th child.

Fixed it. First three are hers from a previous marriage. 4th is hers with SAHD. Then the triplets, now the twins. |

you do realize that if they don't get the 2yo potty trainded before the twins arrive, they'll have SIX kids in diapers at once |

While many people will have potty trained a 3yo (assuming that the 2yo has a birthday before the twins are born) I can't see how anyone would handle potty training while coping with 1yo triplets while pregnant (with those twins). Just writing this up has me exhausted |

So, a 3 yr old, three 1-2 yr olds and then two babies...  What makes a person with 4 kids under 2 want to get pregnant? Technically if only one parent stays home I'm thinking they are over the legal ratio of adults to kids for day care... Guess it doesn't matter if you are at home with your own  |

I'm wondering if she wants to be committed to the loony bin. My sister had 6 kids but they were from 1961 to 1973 and she's crazy.

Octomom, part two. I bet she gets a lot of "help" via taxpayers. All those kids and not married. Yup.

That is sad. They are not going to get any time or attention from the parents because there are so many babies in the house & they are expected to help with the kids. |

My mom had a friend that had twins. When she went for her 6-wk PP checkup she was pregnant - with twins again! And when she went back for that 6wk checkup she was again pregnant, with one. So she had 20 month old twins, 10 month old twins, and a newborn. Her husband left and she ended up in a psychiatric facility, and her parents ended up with the five babies.
DH is too scared of even the possibility of it. He won't come anywhere near me until after that Mirena is securely in place. LOL!

This thread should be printed out and hung up on high school lockers around the country. Teen pregnancy rates would drop to near zero. |

Some people still believe in the pulling out method, I know a partner at a Law firm that have 3 kids because she trusted her husband with the "pulling out" method. |
