Every now and then something happens where you’ll realise you do actually have more than the average number of children. This morning was one of those occasions.
I was preparing for this morning’s anomaly scan and gathered my ante natal notes together. Normally, you’ll have a page or two in which to complete your obstetric history, rather like the picture above.
However, you know you have a large family when…
… you keep your entire obstetric history in a Word file on your computer and print it off and staple it into your maternity notes whenever needed!
What were your “You know you have a large family…” moments?

I am kind of copying this idea. Mine is fun things like what happens when you eat out. i will link back saying I got the idea from you
I’ll be over to take a look!
I always realise that i have more children than the norm when I run out of spaces on official forms and I only have four children.
I know! What’s that about then? It’s not the same having to either staple an extra page to the form or squishing up writing so that it’s teeny weeny and unreadable!
Yesterday when we went to the cinema our family took up a whole row, I felt very proud and thought ‘I did that’!
A whole row – goodness me – something to be proud of!
Aha! It’s not until you see something like that, that you stop and think, “Wow!” is it?
I love your stories of your larger family! Hope it’s all going well. Completely frazzled here just with two and finding time on line eluding me. If you fancy a visit I reckon Rainham’s 1 hour 40 and we could do that? XXX if you live in Rainham, that is? Ha ha. Can’t remember?
Rochester station is closer – I can collect you from there
I only have four (planning to have at least one more!) but as the kids get bigger, so are all my pots and pans. I just can’t cook a meal in small pots for us anymore, and it’s only going to get worse! I am slowly upgrading to giant dishware.
when ur told that uv been remembered as “the lady with all the kids”. i was in morisons today after being in yesterday but hubbys card didnt work so my items were put back so when i went in i had to rebuy them all and the lady at the deli counter told me she remembered me cos im the young lady with all of the kids! i didnt mind apart from the fact that i only have 4 lol
you know you have a large family when everone askes you if you are a childminder!!!
When you go to buy school supplies and someone asks if you run a school…
Or people ask me if I am “stocking up” on groceries when I am only shopping for a week…
When it takes almost an hour to make doctor appointments for yearly check-ups…
when I walk down the toy isle at Christmas and realize I have already bought or decided against buying most of these toys at least once… maybe several times…
