I only thought I would have 2 kids. Now I know I want one more, just not for a while. I know this feeling wont go away, I am always thinking about it. I think the age gap wont be a problem, I know plenty of siblings that have a few years age gap and they get on great. It is more personality then age I think anyway. Me and my brother are 15months apart and we don't get on at all.
About work. Even as a casual, if you have been there for 1 year and can show steady work (not just a day here and there) then you are intitled to 1 year maternity leave. Even if it is unpaid then you still have the Government funded mat leave or baby bonus.
thanks for your replies ladies I am still undecided, but I think, like you all say, I think I would regret not having another one. I will have another chat to dh tonight. I'm not worried about not earning money by not working, i'm more worried that I won't have a position to return to iykwim and have to go through the whole process of getting back into the work force when i'm ready.
the more i think about it, (which is all I can think about atm ) the more I think I want another.
