I'm 35 with a daughter (11), and 2 boys (8 & 2). We won't know boy or girl for 4 more weeks, but I have been so nauseous and tired this pregnancy. Hoping it means a girl, but could just be my age. Rest when you can.

I'm on my 5 th and 33. I think it's both age and the other siblings that makes this pregnancy so different. I use to love being pregnant but this time around, not so much. With all the activities and events, pta, housework, play days, I can't keep a thought in my head. And now I'm starting to confuse my kids names like my grandmother use to.

Yes, this is my 5th, also all boys including this one. I could sleep all night and day. My kids are 11, 7,5,and 11 months. I am 37, so I guess age my be a factor and the amount of activities my boys have. Good luck, and Yay for all the boys.
