A lot of people want to have more children, but fear tends to hold them back because they don\u2019t know how it\u2019s going to impact them or their current children, so we thought it would be good to talk about things we\u2019ve noticed in the last few weeks. Adam talks about how he didn\u2019t really think about the impact of having a 5th child until basically the child was here and everything started getting flipped on its head. It\u2019s hard to tune in to the impact of having more kids until it\u2019s actually about to happen, especially for the man, who isn\u2019t carrying the baby for 9 months. We\u2019ve learned we need to make sure we don\u2019t forget the older kids and ensure that they still feel important individually.

\u201cOne thing that I need to make sure that I\u2019m doing is really spending time on the level for each of them individually. And I think we\u2019ve done reasonably OK at that, I know the older kids definitely recognize it a lot more when they don\u2019t get their specific time for their needs and interests to be met. So that\u2019s really important is, they love being a unit, they love being a team, but at a point they need to be seen individually.\u201d 13:07
