[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So #2 didn't almost break our marriage, but the jump from 1 to 2 was WAY HARDER than either of us realized it'd be.  #1 was pretty easy and very much longed for and waited for and our first year or so with her was really very laid back.  We had lots of patience, had all hands on deck, loved every hard minute of it.  With number 2 it was just plain HARDER.

In fact it was so hard, I don't want 3, even though I always thought I would.  I don't think it'd be the right choice for our marriage or our finances.[/quote]

This is pretty much us as well.  We're just so tired with #2 and it's much harder because you really can't take a break and rotate handing off the child to spouse.  It's hard on the relationship too because both of you are tired and irritable and I mean you're not going to snap at the baby obviously so you end up being shorter with each other.  We were considering a third at one point but it's just not on the table anymore by mutual agreement.  [/quote]
