That is very early to start!!

I found that with mine, DH and I became more and more unintelligent on a daily basis from DD's age 151/2 to about 19. Then we became smarter and smarter again!!!!
Maybe it has something to do with frontal lobe myelination (their's not ours) and paying college fees.

Having simultaneously 2 teenage DDs however made us both stupid and smart at the same time which was well confusing....

Seven children in under ten years. Five in the middle were all girls. No wonder my father stayed at work so much!
 
Ok guys a little excitement around here the past few hours. Power went out due to strong winds blowing down power poles. As you know I'm /we are incubating here. So hot water bottles and move the chicks to a new box with the bottles. 4 eggs are quitters one NN almost made it but he died along with the quitters. 15 hatched which leaves 4 eggs left. I put them in an egg carton on the hearth as I'm cleaning up the incubator. Well the wife hears them chirping and tells me she's hearing them. I can't hear them but tell her that when I get every thing cleaned up I'll try and keep them warm till power comes on. Not giving them much of a chance as it's already a day late, and power was off 3 hours. So she takes them and puts them under the blanket with her as I finish up. She says not only are they peeping but she can feel them moving. Power is back on now and they are back in incubator three have pipped external now.
