Is five so much harder than four??

I have four boys and their terrific.  I've always wanted a girl, but it was never in the cards.  My husband and I are contemplating trying again for a girl.  We know that there are no guarantees, and we aren't certain it is right for us.  I was wondering whether or not there was much of a difference between four children and five. I've heard that once you have four you might as well have five or more, that at four it is about as hard as it's gonna get.  Sound wrong? but then what do I know?

    Well,

    I have four children, all adults now. But I had 3 girls and 1 boy. Want one? LOL

    just kidding!! LOL

    I have 6 grandchildren. I have had 5 at my home atonce, for the weekends and holidays. At the end of the day, I count my blessings. My kids and grandkids are my blessings and my future.

    My youngest daughter is due in May. So I will have 7 grandkids.

    My kids dad and I come from large families, so I might be biased on this question. LOL

    Whatever happens I wish you the best!
