Hi Amy:

My big worry for not having a 4th is we can't afford a van to transport
a family of 6!!! But we may yet work that out...We have a 3 bedroom
house in yet all 5 of us co-sleep in one room. If we ever have another
baby Mom's and Dad's room will be VERY crowded!!! It seems the joy of a
new baby surely outweighs the need for my husband and me to have free
space in our bed. Even my older children positively BEG for another
baby. They recognize what a gift a little bundle truly is. They're
willing to sacrifice all kinds of priveleges if we were only blessed
with a 4th.

Good luck with your house-hunting!

Sonia

it sounds like you need to start knocking down some walls and instead of carpet
get wall-to-wall mattress:) i love sharing a bed. the more the merrier:) even
our dogs sleep with us though they don't stay on the bed, just join us for a bit
then leave and sleep on the floor.

To all the "Family-Bed" co-sleepers out there;

I remember being really impressed when I once read that Paul and Lynda
McCartney restricted themselves to two bedrooms in their home and they
slept with their four children. Despite having a rather grand English
estate and "all the money in the world", they still had their
priorities: BABIES!!! And close family intimacy.

Now that's a testimonial.
