Thinking.......

Question 1.

What is one thing you know now that you wish you would have known before having children?

Question 2.

did you and your spouse talk about how you want to raise your children before having them?

Question 3.

did having children bring you and your spouse closer together?

or did it pull you apart? (ex different parently skills, no time to spend together etc)

Question 4

Was your pregnancy planned or accidently, or alittle of both??

Question 5

How did you tell your families you were expecting?

Was it creative, or just a normal conversation when you just slipped it out? (ex. Hey mom beautiful day isn ... so your going to be a grandma, we should have dinner outside today!)

Hey

1/ I wish I'd had known how hard and tiring it is to be a parent especially when your pregnant with number two.

2/Me and my partner discussed parenting, mainly discipline and also things our parents did that we disagree with. Just trying to become the best parents we can.

3/I would say me and my partner defo got closer after I had Rhys. We were so loved up with each other after he was born, it was perfect. I was expecting us to crumble but we were great. My hormones pushed us apart at the beginning of this pregnancy but I didn't even know I was pregnant when we were falling out. Everythings getting back to normal now.

4/My son was planned and took me 4 years to get pregnant. This new bubba wasn't planned, I got pregnant on the pill. After alot of tears and thinking I knew that I wanted to keep this baby.

5/With my son my mum phoned me up a week before I found out I was preggers and actually asked if I was pregnant (she had a dream that i was). Obviously I said no, week later when I found out, I just said I was pregnant to my mum. Bit shocked but fine. My dad didn't take it well at all, very disappointed (only daughter). Hes okay now. As for the new baby, I told them both as soon as I found out, it went pretty much the same, mum ok, dad upset. My mum is happy though, she loves her grandson and cant wait for my daughter to be born.

There you go hun
Love Toni, Rhys (1) and Lily bump (26+6) x x
