[quote=Anonymous]If you’re 35 now with a 5 month old, you can space your 2nd pregnancy out a bit more (assuming you didn’t have massive trouble TTC and your husband is a similar age). You can have kid 2 when kid 1 is 3-3.5 and that will be easier on you than “2 under 2” or whatever. Honestly I would stop at 2. I’m low energy myself and had kids younger than you (30/34) and I’m tapped out at two. Even if you hire help and use preschools/child care a fair bit, you’re still managing all that - the different pickups and drop offs and/or the whereabouts of your nanny/babysitter. It’s not easy especially if you’re taking on all/most of the mental load yourself. [/quote]
