[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can I just say I came in here to answer but seeing all the responses I want to let you know I had a second and he’s a freaking adorable smush and I didn’t know I could love both my kids so much because I adore my first kid. So I’m just gushing that you should have a second only if YOU want one and they can both be your everything [/quote]

Of course you love your babies. That doesn’t mean you have the bandwidth or resources to be the best parent to all of those kids. I have religious family members that talk like you while continuing to have more kids. The families are **so in love ** and stressed and overextended. Wanting a baby is necessary, but not sufficient.  [/quote]

+1. Every time my sister has another baby (#4 now) she promptly shifts most of her attention over and largely ignores the other three. She also has no plan to pay for 4 college educations but doesn’t let that bother her one bit.[/quote]

I’m this poster and only have two and stopping firmly at two because of this come on, anything more than 2 you will be outnumbered and I know that. My husband is very much hands on and we are an awesome team. Baby is now turning 1 and I can’t believe I waited almost 4 years weighing the decision. We all love each other including older brother. I’m just saying make it be your decision don’t think about the sibling part so much like many posters mention here. [/quote]
