(I posted this on the TTGP board as well but felt it may be good to post it here too)
So I am excited about expanding the family soon, but there are some things I am concerned about. First off, hubby works different shifts (basically day and night shift) seeing how he works at a nuclear power plant. I am therefore by myself quite a bit as a result of this. Hubby and I both want another but the reality of some of it is kind of nerve-racking. We all know that the stressful days that us moms have now will be worse with one more kiddo. Now, I KNOW there are positives to a baby-don't get me wrong. But in situations like this, you can always pinpoint the negatives and you know the positives are there but you are unable to measure them. Anyway, I guess what I am asking is for some insight as to whether or not any of you went through this AND once your blessing was here how you were able to adjust and make it work. Thank you ladies.I really appreciate you listening if nothing else. I know this is a decision that only my hubby and I can make but I felt this was a good place to look for insight and a listening ear.
The negatives never played a roll in our decision for when we tried for our 3rd. I completely forgot what it was like to have a newborn. The positives have far outweighed the negatives. I can only think of one true negative since Alexis has arrived.
