[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't do this. If your DD is 14 now, she's entering a critical phase where it's more important than ever for her to have your attention and guidance when she needs it. Obviously you aren't going to love your DD any less if/when you have another child, but you also will need to care for an infant/toddler and will have less time with her than you do now. And it's always been the two of you, having a new husband and baby might create a family dynamic that she feels left out of, or make her feel like you're "starting over". If this had happened when she were younger, I don't think it would be as big of a deal because younger kids are less self-conscious about these things, but she's 14. I wouldn't take the chance.
