Going back after twins

Hi all.

I'm an almost 21yr old mum to beautiful 6 month old I/D twin girls.
DF and I will be getting married next October and we always said we would TTC on our honeymoon. Originally we weren't going to get married till 2011/12 and the girls were a bit older. We own our own businesses and are now in the financial position to get married and support a new baby aswell as our other children. I have always wanted to have 4 children and hope to have finished our family by the time I am 30.
The girls will be around 18 months old by the time I'd like to TTC. Do you think this would be a good gap? DF thinks it's too close but so far I think I have done an excellent job in raising the girls and don't find it very confronting or difficult. I know this may change as they get older though.

I missed the birth of my girls due to needing an emergency c/s under a general and child birth is something I would really love to experience.

So my question is do you think this would be an ok gap and do you think at my age I would be able to handle 3 babies under 3? I'm sooo clucky that if DF said let's go for it I'd do it now!

Brooke, you have done a fantastic job with the girls and I have no doubt what so ever that you could easily cope with 3 under the age of 3, so if it is what you guys want and as you said you can afford it I say GO FOR IT

DH and I have been thinking about the same thing as we want to have another child but don't want to wait too long, I am still thinking about whether I could cope with 3.

Thankyou Helen

Maybe we can both TTC together next year and if it all gets a bit much we can trade kids for a bit lol.

Sounds like a plan to me

I say why not.

DP has sperm issues so we have already started trying for no 3! We are about to move to mums to save so now is the BEST time for us to try!

Sounds like you guys are in a great position and you are happy and good with two.
