[quote=Anonymous]Once my 4-5 year old DD realized that a new baby would never turn into a playmate peer due to the age gap, she became firm and clear that she did not want a new baby in her house. Has stayed that way ever since, despite getting new baby cousins and having lots of time to get to know babies. Works for us since we’re infertile, but did help us to decide against pursuing donor eggs or adoption. She’s in elementary now and loves her family and doesn’t want to change anything about it. You don’t have to have a second child. There are many happy children and families of three. A sibling isn’t a “gift”, it’s another person. Don’t assume she’ll be missing out in something if you stick with one. It’s a trade off and your family will be different, but you’ll gain as much as you lose with a one kid family.[/quote]
