Personally i don't think the feeling goes away for a long time. maybe once the youngest is a teen and we can do adult things again it does.

for us its not a question of what we want but what we can afford. if we won lotto we would go another timeor two but at some time we had to make a choice and we always knew 3 was affordable for us. any more than that and the babies we already have would have to give things up, and we would struggle too much.

but that urge is still there. DH is having the chop as soon as he is old enough so we know it wont happen.

I find it sad sometimes to think i will never have another baby, but i also find it exciting knowing my babies are growing up.
