[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Personally I think you are a little too old. We have three and the my husband got a vasectomy because we definitely did not want 4. Also, we have 3+ years between #2 and #3. You still have a newborn and you are 40. I would stop there[/quote]

OP is not old. Plenty of moms are having another child at her age. I’ve known some moms who had their first child at 39. Also, she has an infant, not a newborn. [/quote]

She will be 58+ by the time the third goes to college and that is older than my mom was when she became a grandma. That is what I think about. I had my third at 34 and honestly I felt like I was pushing it. But of course we all have different plans. If she were considering the first or the second, I would not suggest to stop because being a mom and giving your child a sibling outweigh in my opinion the negatives of being an older parent. For a third, however, it just seems unfair to the third baby[/quote]
She will be 58+ regardless so why does that matter?[/quote]
