[quote=Anonymous]I was in a similar situation except I wouldn’t necessarily say DH didn’t want a third. It was more that he felt happy and complete with 2, but he would also be ok with a third. He acknowledged the fact that it would be me having to go through another pregnancy/birth/nursing, so left it up to me if I was willing to do that again.

We ended up having our third and he is so happy we did. She is our only girl and he has such a sweet bond with her.

Our first 2 were school aged so it was hard going through the baby stage again, but not as hard as I expected. I think because I have more perspective now about how fast it all goes. My first is about to turn 10 and it’s just going at warp speed. He is already wanting to spend more time with friends and becoming more independent. In a way it’s nice to still have a sweet snuggly toddler.

And all the things you worried about during when your first two were little doesn’t seem such a big deal the third go round. I ended up nursing for 6 months, but also knew formula would be fine. I didn’t fret over every single milestone. If we get a bad night of sleep due to teething, I know this shall pass.

If your DH is open to it, I say go for it. [/quote]
