[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]16:27 here. OP, how old is your first child? Sometimes it takes time to realize you're able to handle another one. Maybe instead of waiting 2-3 years like you would if your first were typically developing, you might need to wait 3-5 years to get a handle on your first. We went through periods where we thought we'd never have a 2nd, but then starting have periods where it seemed like a remote possibility in the future and eventually came around to affirmatively deciding yes. It was a long decision process. What also helped was educating ourselves about the possibility of having a second with SN, both the same disorder and generally.[/quote] OP here Thanks exactly what we did. Everything has been easier and easier. Our child will be 5 soon and I will be 39 after that. My DH argument is that he feels feels there will always be somthing we will need to do extra to help our child and he already overwhelmed. He feels he reach his limit. [/quote]
