[quote=Anonymous]First child is now almost 4. Thought for a long time that one was all I wanted but now thinking I really want a second. My reasons have nothing to do with wanting to give my first a sibling (I have a sister that I have never been close to). I just feel like family is really important and I have so enjoyed all of the time with my son. But I worry about not being able to give my first the attention he deserves and ruining my very close relationship with him. I also worry about my own health - getting older, would require another C-section. My DH could go either way but I think that a second would put a strain on him and our marriage. We are very happy and not sure I want to rock the boat, but at times I really feel that our family is not complete. Has anyone else struggled with this, especially in your 40s?[/quote]
