[quote=Anonymous] Tell me more about: -How you came to the conclusion to have a 2nd child - we both had siblings and we always knew we wanted 2; our first is very high energy and I knew 2 would be more work, but it was never a consideration to only have one child. -In hindsight, are there moments when you wish you made a different decision? If so, what are those? - Our kids are 3 years apart and get along really well. They can keep each other company for hours. I would never wish for a different choice. The disadvantage is the increased costs, obviously, and it did put stress on our marriage after the second child was born. -Looking back, what advice would you give to yourself? What do you wish you knew at that time? - I think maybe I would hire more help with housework or more childcare help. If you recognize that you feel exhausted with one child, then maybe that’s the right number for you. [/quote]
