[quote=Anonymous]I'd always hoped for three, but when my second one turned 1 there was no way I was ready to start trying again. I told myself that I wouldn't think about it for a year and then I'd reconsider. (Obviously, it occasionally crossed my mind but I wouldn't go down a rabbit hole fretting about it.) About 10months later we decided that we really did want a third. I think it's a really good idea to wait until you feel pretty sure about it before trying for a third. The dynamic with a third child changes things quite a bit. I don't regret it for a second and can't imagine our life without our #3 but it really does change a lot of things--logistics, relationship wise, intensity of 3 kids who need you, etc. (And... the most intense time BY FAR has been since they've all become tweens/teens. Still happy with our decision. But yea, it's been intense.)[/quote]
