[quote=Anonymous]I had the third and I think they have special needs. It has been devastating for me. My oldest was diagnosed with the same special needs after my third was born. I love my kids more than anything, but this life is completely not what I dreamed of for any of us. I’m still processing my grief. If rationally you don’t want a baby, don’t do it. Even in the best case scenario where everyone is healthy, it adds a lot of logistics and cost to your life. It extends the baby phase. And if you’re unlucky in the special needs department like we have been, it can be devastating for everyone. I had all three kids under 35 and had no risk factors. Be really sure you want a third kid and think long and hard about whether you are equipped to handle special needs even if the odds are low. [/quote]
