[quote=Anonymous]Th first year of your first kid is a complete shock. My transition from 0-1 kids was far more difficult than 1-2 or 2-3 (so far.) I also dreaded the newborn phase with each of my kids. It goes by quickly though and there is a lot of joy. The way I saw it was I wanted the subsequent children, and that the time was going to pass regardless of whether I did it, and at the end of the day, I wanted to have the kids (if that makes sense.) I agonized over whether to have a third and tried to figure out how other people did it- especially when my second was under 18 months. It became clearer to me when each of my children were over two years old that I wanted another - so your husband is right to see how you feel if you don’t need to make the decision now. That said, I now know I’m done at 3. You should trust your gut if you feel you do not want to handle more. There is nothing wrong with that. [/quote]
