[quote=Anonymous]It’s a tough predicament to be in. I always felt like 3 would be the best number for me and DH was done at 2- there was no convincing him. I’m 41 now and my kids will be 7 and 9 this year so I’m definitely done ... I don’t want a huge age gap when my career is really blossoming now and it’s so easy having kids close in age who get along. I always wished my second was twins so I could have three close in age and be done, but that wasn’t how the cards were dealt. Although I feel done and know that I won’t have another one, I still haven’t got over it and have had to work on some of the resentment I’ve felt toward DH, because he was the reason we stopped at 2. People on DCUM always talk about the resentment someone will feel if they have a child they really didn’t want, but the resentment you can feel when you don’t end up with the amount of children you wanted (and could have had) is not addressed as much, but it’s a real thing.[/quote]
