Family size and how it was decided

[Rosey]

, what do people say... You'll never regret the babies you have just the ones you don't.

Unfortunately I have heard others say you defiantly can regret having more children. While they absolutely adore them, it has stretched them in every possible way and put enormous pressure on their family. Which is a very real and scary thought.

One baby is enough for some families while others cope fine with three. Guess it depends on individual scenarios.

I was in pretty much the same predicament a year ago down to having 5 boys too! My hubby was adamant he was done so he got the snip a few weeks after our 5th son was born. I wasnt happy about it at all and sometimes Im still not however I can see his side. Id have another baby in a heartbeat but I think I would no matter what. Eventually there has to be an end point and for someone like me, with 5 kids over a decade, the whole pregnancy and babies thing became my entire life and its hard to change that when its such an emotional all consuming journey!

Most days Im ok with being done. It does get easier over time.
