[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd say stick with one because the reasons you listed are pretty weak---as you said it is unlikely that your kids would be super close because of the age gap (yes, I know there are exceptions DCUM but the majority of kids with 5+ years apart are like this until they are adults).  And its a bit hard with COVID right now, but eventually you could always seek out volunteering that involves caring for babies for a bit to get your fix.

[b]For the record, when these types of questions get asked I generally vote for having another, but with the way you worded and listed everything I think you are leaning towards an only. [/quote][/b]

Interesting!  I was also thinking OP should stick with one and I never say that. We actually considered no kids at one point but never considered just one. It was always none or two (or possibly 3). I can’t imagine life with just one. But nothing in your post suggests you should have another OP. [/quote]

Curious as to why you think that?[/quote]
