[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. DH and I are 33. We’ve got pretty typical pros and cons for it; we love raising kids but the toddler years are hectic, we could save more $ not having a fourth but like the experience of a big family etc etc etc.

[b]Not looking for anyone to make the decision for us, just asking because I’m curious to hear other people’s experiences.[/b] [/quote]

This question has been posed umpteen times on this Forum.   Do you have enough money? Do you have enough time and solid caregiving arrangements? Is your marriage strong?  Is the environmental impact of an additional kid important to you? [/quote]

Did you not read the bolded? OP is not asking if she should or shouldn’t, she is asking people about their own experiences and reasoning. [/quote]

Why do other's experiences matter?  If the answer to all the questions above isn't "yes" (except for the environmental impact one), no anonymous person's experiences on DCUM should matter at all.[/quote]
