[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Go volunteer at a hospital to be a newborn snuggler.

Eventually you have to be done. You don't have babies for ever.

The beautiful thing is getting to raise your kids and having them return to you  as adults and with the grandbabies that you can spoil.

I'm curious as to what you mean about feeling scared to have a home without kids?

I think you need to work on developing your identity outside of mommy and whatever you do for work.

Also spice things up again with your husband. I loved being a mom, but I was excited for me and DH to have the house back to ourselves again and free to do what we want.[/quote]

I like having a busy house with kids and life and people. I am not looong forward to the quiet years with just DH. I love him dearly, but, like I said, I grew up in a big family and I like the activity. We also have two dogs and will always have pets. I have an identity-a great career, friends, hobbies, etc. I don’t think it’s a moral failing to consider having another child :)[/quote]

It's itresting you took my comment as saying you have a moral failing. That's not what I said  to you at all.
You are not dealing with something and using  babies/kids to cover it.[/quote]
