One & Done: Only child

I figured it was time to come out of lurkerdom

Ok, so obviously I like to make up words...I've been lurking here since DS was born 5 1/2 months ago. DH and I have been back and forth with the idea od being one and done, but we recently decided we are done. We have many reasons, some of which may seem selfish to an outsider, but we have decided we don't need to explain ourselves to those who don't get it. DS was my 3rd pregnancy, I lost the first at 12 weeks, and the second was an ectopic that ruptured requiring emergency surgery and a blood transfusion. I was a nervous wreck my entire pregnancy with DS, and just can't go through that again. Plus DH and I enjoy traveling, and going out to eat, we can afford that with one, not sure we could with more children. So, anyway, I just wanted to say hi, and introduce myself so I don't feel like such a stalker.

  • Hi welcome! As long as you like frozen treats and hot men then we don't judge on your reasons for being OAD :)
  • Welcome! I'm new here too. I'm sorry to hear about your losses and complications. I had a loss too and pregnancy complications, so I can definitely understand not wanting to go through it again! I don't think it's selfish to be OAD. I think it's selfish to have more kids if a person isn't sure they have the time/money/energy to give them...or at least that's how I feel about my ability to care for a second child the way he or she would deserve!
