I had 2 boys with a 2.5 year gap. Second was an absolute nightmare baby !
5 years later said to my husband i wanted another one - eeeeeekkkkk !!
I guess i was over the trauma of baby number 2.
Along came baby number 3.
Now that baby number 3 is 19 months old we have decided to try again ( last one! )
I must be crazy but we feel like baby 3 will be like an only child and it would be nice for him to have a playmate. Dont know about our chance of any holidays in the next 10 years or so !
I thought i was over the longing and yearning - NOT!!!!
It is a big decision - cant believe i might have 4 kids.
Good luck - I have 3 boys. Ages 9, 6.5, 19 months.
(secretly hoping for GIRL - more than happy with another boy ! )
I thought I was WELL over any urge, well over. I feel complete with three....until we were looking at DS's photo albums, his birth etc. Then he started kinder this year....oh dear I found myself longing for just one more.
haha yeah we will still go to the snow.... hahah but remember it is just couples?? lol no children.. they will have to hide in our suitcases lol. ahh.. like i said, our togetherness in nagging for babies will eventually work
I went through a super-clucky stage when Imran was about 1. Luckily for me DH refused to even contemplate another. Eventually the clucky passed and I'm so grateful to DH.
I love having my 2 big boys, being able to go away with only enough equipment for half an army and being semi-spontaneous. I'm really glad that I can enjoy my family without the stress of a baby.
Maybe one day I'll want another but for now I'm selfishly enjoying trips to the snow, free days(thanks to child care) and conversations about which ice-cream is the most important.
