Hello everyone. Today is my first day on this site, all my kidlets are with my mother for a while tonight so I could get a little R&R. Much needed and long overdue. I am Amanda and I have a few questions for those of you who have done this numerous times. I have a set of 5 year old twin daughters (identical), an 18 month old son, and am currently 6 weeks pregnant with yet another set of twins (Dr. says identical because they are in the same sack.)How do you ladies due this. I get so stressed out and so tired and I have just now realized what causes this baby thing..lol.. I have decided that I am not ready for anymore after this. My SO is away alot and I am feeling a little depressed because I am with the kids ALL the time. Is it wrong of me to ask him to find work closer to home? Is that selfish? Please let me know. Thanks a ton mommies and daddies.

Hi Amanda

My name is emma i have currently one set of 6 months old identical boys and am due my second set of twins in december so i too feel stressed and tired with babies and am definatley stopping after theses two. Like u my husband is in us rangers and is away all the time and i do also feel strain of being at home all day with babies and im not looking forward to an extra two on top of it all but hey they are my blessings and my angels and i wouldnt be with out them. When i feel stressed or wound up i go and stand at the front or back door for a few deep breaths to calm and relax myself and i feel im ready for my next round...lol!!!
I hope all goes well for u and u will get there u obviously have the strenght in u after dealing with one set already!!!

Hi Amanda, I don't have multipule sets of twins just 1 set of boys and a soon to be 4yr old daughter. I don't think you are being selfish at all your husband does need to be closer to home to help you with the children. The BIGGEST JOB of all is raising children and from time to time you need your breaks,lunch breaks,personal days, sick days, and vaction time!!! Just to keep your sanity..
I had the same problem my husband worked on the road also. All the way up until Feburary a month before I had the twins. It has a been a big help having him here. Get on the net and see if you can find some jobs in his field in your area or surrounding areas to where he can be home every night. Good luck and Congradulations!!

Hey Emma -
I remember when you first wrote about finding out about the second set of twins. How is it going? Were you able to convince your sister to come out when the babies arrive? You are going to need help. How are you feeling? I think about you a lot and say a prayer for you!
