[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It doesn’t seem you would like to have a second child. I had a wonderful 1st child; I used to LOVE being around children and go out with my only. We had tons of fun together.... then i had my second child. She is almost 5 now and up until last summer, I regretted having a second child a lot. I still loved her, but I didn’t enjoy her most of the time.

She was more of your classic child - temper tantrums, picky eater, difficult listening, touching everything, etc. Nothing bad per se, but more tiresome. Plus, with her I could no longer do the things I enjoyed doing with my 1st.

THANK GOD she turned around and has mellowed down. I really like her now and enjoy her company. However, I have come to realize that Im a better parent to an only child or at leadt one on one. [/quote]

OP here.  I feel like my child is like your second child.  I keep hoping if I had another baby he or she would be calmer.  My child couldn’t even snuggle with me as a baby.  Really everything is difficult about my child.  I don’t think it’s me being a FTM because other people have mentioned how difficult he is.  [/quote]

How else is he difficult, OP? I’m in a similar position and genuinely curious. My DD is very physically active and emotionally intense. I’m worn out.[/quote]
