They fight ALL the time, its really putting a strain on the family, we have to do separate activities if we want a "normal" day out, they have ruined so many occasions its depressing, its really backfired having the second one.
Don't assume if you have another that they'll play together.
Some days I'm glad to see the back of 'em. The missus took them for a weeks uk break in the summer and to be honest it was heaven until they came back & started fighting.
That is all.
Fair play, there are very few people who'd be that candid.
Two+ and I question whether you'd have a regular sex life
Hora is our very own Dr Ruth 🙂

its not that bad, ill send you a an invite to our next webcam session 😉
one on the way, chuffed about it. Will wait and see how this one pans out before deciding on more or not. One thing I find funny is the assumption of many that you'll naturally want more than one. I'm very ambivalent at the moment, can see the pros and cons of both. I was an only child and just learnt to entertain myself, plus I got good birthday presents :lol:.
0.7 of a child. Due December 14th. I'll update then. Happy with the decision presently.
Firstly, congratulations to you and Ferrals.
Secondly, please spend at least 3 years considering your pre-influenced update
Thirdly, Matching junior Oakley's?
None.
I never wanted kids. The mrs did, but she has a dicky ticker, so doesn't have the energy to raise them let alone have them.
Oh sorry, my response:
2, 7yo&3yo soon to be 8 & 4. Love them to bits, don't regret having one or the other at all.
Life is significantly different with them, and compromised from the single life as parents will know. IMO parenting is the hardest, yet most rewarding job in the world.
I'm a of very average ability and an emotionally reticent person, but the achievements my 7yo has made, and the emotional attachment I have toward my daughter that I never thought I'd have transcends any material, social, financial or lifestyle gain that I can possibly think of.
Very happy.
2 and, despite some stressful (but not that worrying) health issues on the younger one, glad we have. That said, we have a smaller age gap, but I think you'd still find they played together to some extent (our oldest still often ignores the youngest, but when they are nice to each other it gives me a warm fuzzy feeling).
I'm not sure about more at the moment for me, but that's nothing to do with how the 2 we have are and more to do with me/wife/house size etc.
2, one of each, 22 months apart, not planned like that and we didn't know which sex before they arrived. They get on great most of the time. Wouldn't have had more, now too old and MrsH's health means she can't.
Tbh if we had the family support network and no need for 2xfulltime to pay nursery etc fees we'd have zillions but we are in the earn too little to have 1xfulltime parent and just not enough with 2 to create 2+
@kimbers using your head or chest mounted gopro?
That's the most exciting vids that I'd shoot with a gopro. My biking ain't one of them 😀
She would be shouting 'oh Conan run me through with your sword'!

Bravo.
We have one, the missus wants another. I'm think I'm too old. Then she told me the "egg" we had frozen ,was fertilised.
I didn't realise this. Stupido. It plays on my mind .
Even though things aren't perfect ,money,work...the possibility of what Kryton has described has my spidersenses tingling.
