[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks all. I’ve accepted I don’t want to be in my mid 60s when my third graduates from college (which is what I’d be, if we had a third), so we we’re not having another. Looking to learn from others who grieved not having more children at this phase in life, to learn how you learned to accept and move on. [/quote] I think you just have to look forward. So many wonderful things as kids get older. Traveling is so much easier with 2. And soon they’ll be doing grown up things with you. A new baby would mean you’re back stuck taking care of a baby instead of playing with the older ones. But yes, a loss of a wonderful time in your life. I miss newborns so much. I just sat and nursed them all day. I loved their chubbiness. It’s okay to remember but still love the kids you have now[/quote]
