[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My third is ten months old now and by far the most difficult child I have ever seen or heard of (wakes up still every two hours through the night and very whiney and needy), but I don’t regret having her whatsoever and would do it again each time. But I knew I always wanted a third. I would have never felt “complete” without a third. Now that I have her, I feel 100% complete and 1 million percent done.

I purposefully have a 4 year gap between my second and third. I am so grateful for the gap. I would have to be committed if I had to handle my very difficult third plus two other toddlers/very young children. Having the older two be somewhat self-sufficient and able to help me with things has been a lifeline. Plus, they absolutely adore the baby in a way that a younger child wouldn’t really be able to, and seeing those interactions and care for the baby has been priceless.

My thought with kids is that if you want another, have another. It is an incredibly rare situation in which that decision under those circumstances will turn into a “regretted child.” [/quote]
