    Well I think this is it........

    Every time I have looked at getting rid of baby stuff I have had a little tug in my uterus and though nope not the time. Today I am sitting here listing the cot, change table and am about to go pull out some other JIK stuff I had waiting and it's fine, I have had no twinges of panic at the thought of getting rid of it all.

    So I'm pretty sure this is it, and although it makes me a bit sad that my baby is going into a big boy bed **sob** it doesn't make me want another for the first time in ages.
    I have lots of new bubs at MG that I get to cuddle each week and am totally in love with my wee two!!

    Finally at peace and for those that have heard and understood my anguish at what to do after my VBAC attempt, this is really nice!

    Love the disclaimer! My SIL did the same thing and then 1 year later decided she needed another bubba, so she went out bought it all over again!

    It's great to be happy with with your choices
    FWIW it's 5 years since I made the same decision and I couldn't be happier with it.

    OOoh J how freaky!!!!!

    It is really nice to not second guess. I have been on a de cluttering rampage and maybe in the back of my mind I am thinking I will borrow or buy if it happens, but in my conscious rational mind I know this is it and it feels nice to know that I am at peace after umming and ahhing for so long.

    Shush Melski considering we use the withdrawal method of contraception (very effective for 4 years pre-Izzy I might add) the thought did cross my mind that I might be tempting fate a bit.... Off to sort out some sort of contraception this week methinks!

    Good on you hun, it's nice to feel at peace with your decision isn't it?!

    I'm at the same place chic. I'm selling some of our baby stuff this week (to a lovely bb member/old friend who happens to run a second hand baby goods business lol!). Even though we have said for a long time that DS was our last it is only recently that I have felt comfortable getting rid of our things.

    Of course I will use the same disclaimer you did as a girl has every right to change her mind hey?
