 Re: The Duggars 17th baby is due this week!!!
I can give you an insider view. My father came from a family of 15... 10 boys and 5 girls. The older ones helped with the younger ones and as the olders one have told me It made them the wonderful person they are. All of the older children have homes and great jobs and very wonderful lives...some of the younger ones felt left out because they didn't have to help others!! These are their words. I have always been questioning my aunts and uncles about growing up in a large family and they (every single one) have all said they wouldn't want it any other way!
My father wanted lots of children but ended up with 3 because of my mom having RH neg. blood. I would have 15 in a heart beat..used to tell my granny that I wanted to out beat her by one. But I have pcos and praise God I have 1 beautiful son and 1 step son in the army and 3 beautiful step-daughters. One lives with us and the other 2 most likely will be with us in the near future.
And as the falling out commint. I can tell you one thing my grannys doctor told her when finding out she had 15... "Mrs. F....r I can't believe that.. Your body looks as thought you've had only 1 or 2." He was amazed so maybe women knows how there body can handle the stress of being pregnant. i can tell you at 39 I feel I could have at least 5 more now only God knows if that will happen!! |
