[quote=Anonymous]We have three; I was 39.5 when the third was born. While in some ways four would be great, the factors that swayed us against it were: needing some breathing room in life; both of us working FT (and not wanting to stop); having zero family support; and age. The work was probably the most relevant factor--I had zero interest in cutting back or quitting, and in reality it would have been me who had to do so. Even though my job is flexible, being a full-time working mom to four seemed like too much. I don't know any moms of four who worked FT, but plenty of moms of three who did, and the lack of representation seemed important.[/quote]
