[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have three and I have been absolutely done the moment the third was born. We initially wanted two, but we kept thinking of another after the secondo was born... both DH and I wanted a third, but were afraid of admitting it. After the first and only birth control fail, I got pregnant with the third. We were both happy and scared. The third is amazing and we are very happy about our “accident“, but DH got a vasectomy a few months aft #3 was born and I have never thought of another baby since... I am done.. not sad... not nostalgic... nothing.  [/quote]

How old is #3? I felt this way after #2 - totally totally DONE. DH agreed and got a vasectomy when #2 turned 2. Well, about 2 years later when she turned 4 I really really wanted just one more. But we were stuck because he had already had the surgery and had no interest in undoing it or doing IVF. I don’t blame him for that, but really wished we didn’t jump the gun on his surgery. I’ve mostly gotten over it but still think about it now and then. #2 is now 9, so the third would be 4 if we’d had him/her when I wanted to.[/quote]

#3 is 18 months, but I doubt I will ever change my mind. I am stretched to the maximum (especially during these times)... but more than that, I have no desire for another. I am 36 so not too old, but I feel I just turned a chapter and I feel complete. I did not feel like that ever after number 2 (And she was my most difficult baby)...[/quote]
