[quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, OP. Similar here, except I have 2. Always wanted more, kind of thought we’d agreed to have more, husband was never ready. Now it’s too late. I spent years feeling super sad about this. It’s gotten gradually better over time. One thing that’s helped me is thinking that I don’t want to waste the time I do have with my kids regretting that I don’t have more or regretting how fast they are growing up. So I make a concerted effort to focus on the time I have with them right now, and to enjoy that stage. I do try to be grateful for what/who I do have. I know that can be a challenge at times. Depending on your age, you could theoretically have another child, but this would still require your spouse to be on board, which I assume he isn’t. Same goes for fostering. [/quote]
