[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I loved the baby/toddler years. But once my youngest was three, I didn’t want to go back to them - we can do big kid stuff like cool day trips, skiing, etc - no naps! No baby food! No 6 pm bedtimes! It wouldn’t seem fair to my seven year old that he couldn’t do things bc of a baby at home. Plus, the age gap was getting big, and it is hard to find something that is appropriate for a two year old AND a nine year old. (Babies go everywhere, but I was worried about a few years later.)[/quote] This is where I'm at: 3-year old and 9-year old and I'm 40. Part of me longs for a third baby because we've had a lot of financial success recently and we're finally in a position to afford it. But the other part of me feels like it would be unfair to my other two. I want them to be able to play travel sports and go on fun family vacations and a baby will change our dynamic. I'm really torn. Because of my age, it's decision time.[/quote]
