[quote=Anonymous]I'm pregnant with my third after being obsessed with this question since the day I found out I was pregnant with my 2nd, worried it would be my last (because DH originally was adement about only wanting 2). I think three is the perfect number of kids in general, but now that I'm experiencing a third pregnancy, I think it's solidifying that view.

I felt so deeply sad at the thought of every moment being my last of this chapter when I was doing it all with my second, and really longed for another time. And now that I have gotten that wish, for the first time ever, I feel a little inconvenienced by pregnancy and semi dreading the sleepless nights and more years of diapers. I still very much want this, but I am just glad it will be my last.

So I think it confirms my feeling that the first child shocks you and is for learning and matrescence, the second child is to soak up every minute, and the third is for closure (while also soaking up every minute).

Long story short, I really feel done this time, whereas I didn't at all during/after my second. [/quote]
