[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Current kids are 1.5 and 3.5.  We have our hands full but they are happy, thriving, wonderful.  I'm lucky and I know I should just be satisfied with what we have.

We only planned on two kids.  We budgeted for two kids and have a nice lifestyle.  A lot of things would be stretched if we had more, not only finances but space, time, patience.  I know all this.

I hated being pregnant.  I hated the newborn phase.

Still, there's something in me that just feels like my family isn't complete.  I don't even understand how that's a feeling, but it is and I have it strongly.  I find myself jealous of women announcing pregnancy when though I absolutely hate pregnancy and thought I never wanted to be pregnant again.  (No, it's not cause they get attention or anything, I hated that part too.)   I just really want another kid despite all logic and reason.

Is this just a phase? Hormones?  DH doesn't want a third so it's probably moot.  Should I just ignore these feelings and hope they go away?  Will I regret it forever if I don't have another?[/quote]

Your DH gets a say in this and he doesn't want another.  Stop thinking only of yourself and your selfish desires.  Only a fool has a child when the other partner does not want one![/quote]
