[quote=Anonymous]Has anyone wanted another kid in theory but decided against it just because they hate the newborn stage so so much? I hate pretty much everything about the first 4 or so months. I hate recovering from delivery, the difficulty in getting breast feeding established, the exhaustion, the impact exhaustion has on my mood and patience etc and I don’t particularly love sitting around all day snuggling a newborn. I hoped it would be less miserable the second time but nope I hate it just as much this time. We had always planned on 3 kids but right now I feel like I don’t ever want to experience this phase of life again. It’s not ppd - I’m not depressed - I’m just not a newborn person. It seems silly though to not have a 3rd just bc of a few months but god it sucks![/quote]
