[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ive always wanted 3, but when I was pregnant with number 1 at 34, I knew I wouldn’t make it to 3. Had number 2 at 36 and am even more convicted that while it would be glorious to have 3, I am not built for it. I know I can be an excellent mother to 2, maintain a happy marriage, have a meaningful career, and invest in self care, family and friends.

I just don’t see how that happens with 3. And God forbid that kid have special needs. I fear it would break me. I still have pangs for a third and the nagging feeling that someone is not here yet. I might just have to meet that baby in heaven one day. [/quote]

I’m 34, conflicted about having a third, and this makes me sad. Nervous to go back to that first 18 months, and thankful for the two kids I have. Plus the expense, and wanting to have some free time for my own pursuits. But also don’t want to regret not doing it in ten years. [/quote]

Me too. I'm in exactly the same position. Hopefully, I'll have made up my mind 3-4 years from now.[/quote]
