those who have finished having kids

[*EJ*]

I completely understand where you are coming from, i'm pretty much in the same place right now. Throughout the pregnancy of DS2 i had decided that 2 would be enough also. But as DS2 grows out of things i can't bring myself to start giving away anything. Just incase...

I'm also a bit scared to make that permanent decision of NO MORE... even though another is highly unlikely.

I'd be interested to see what others have to say also.

We have decided that 2 is it! DP has had the snip so that shop is definitely shut however I do sometimes get a small pang o fhaving no more. It seems to have stopped recently as DD2 is teething and I am getting no sleep so maybe that's the key - the more sleep you get the more you think about it

yeah its when they are being good when you get that pang... when they are being horrendous its an easy choice to stop at what you already have LOL

I'm exactly the same. We've just had #3 and there's no way I would have thought I'd consider #4 but find myself thinking about it A LOT the last few weeks

I think that pang is pretty normal, no matter how many you have. Even though we would not actively try to have #4 and our fertility isn't great, I'm not ready for DH to do anything permanent, not just yet.

I don't think that urge goes away for a looong time. Must be why there are so many overzealous Grandmothers out there

I get pangs when I hear a newborn cry in the supermarket or I read a birth story on here but I know there is no mire for me. DH is fixed up now too so no accidents either

Hey all,
DH and I always said two kids was enough. Now we have two, DH got the snip, I won't say I do not think "but, but, but" I do get over it though
I sometimes think maybe I DO want one more, but then I realise I love staus quo.
