Anyone done having kids? Are you happy with your decision?

in February 2012 Moms

We're pretty sure we're done. Well, DH is sure. I go along with it because it beats the heck out of arguing and I want DH to be happy. Plus adding another kid obviously needs to be a mutual decision.

I'm just getting sad about it lately. A ton of my friends are having babies still. I quit MOPS and a big reason is because it was making my heart hurt to see so many of my friends having babies. Literally 6 of my good friends from MOPS are either pregnant (4 of them) or recently had babies.

Most days I'm okay with it and can even be happy about it, but some days (like today-when it's not been an easy day with the two I have!) I just feel so sad.

Anyone else in the same boat?

    Totally in the same boat. Most days on ok with two but sometimes I think about the baby stuff I mid or will miss. It's days like that when I think of having a newborn again and all the care they need. I also think about how in about 2 to 3 years we'll hav

    I personally go back and forth. If it were solely up to DH, we would be done. We have always talked about adopting for #3 and stopping there, but lately I've really missed being pregnant and been thinking a lot about babies. So, I don't know. If we do

    We are done. We have two kids, a boy and a girl.  I enjoyed being pregnant (for the most part) but, as far as we are both concerned, we aren't having anymore.  I see pregnant women and no longer envy them so I know I'm comfortable with this deci

    I'm pregnant now, but this will likely be our last. I'm a sahm and will eventually have to go back to work. If DH gets a huge raise and promotion in the next 3 or 4 yrs, then we would talk about third since we could afford for me to stay home longer. I

    I am DONE!  We have three, and I was way done after two.  I was preparing for a divorce when pregnant with my second - as a matter of fact, I decided to leave exh literally the day after DD was conceived - talk about crazy timing, as I had no

    We are done at two - H had a vasectomy about a month ago and I am SO happy.  We knew we only wanted 2 - DH would have gone along for a 3rd had I wanted one but I didn't.  I know I want two because of several factors so I am 100% happy with th

    DH would be ok with one, but I really want 2. He doesn't have a great relationship with his brother, so I think he's nervous that the kids will have that same sort of relationship. It's not a no forever, but it's definitely a no for now. I'd like to start

    I think we're done.

    The plan had been to wait until Aria was at least 3, and reassess. Hubs has always leaned toward wanting 2, while I've always only wanted one. The plan changed at the beginning of February when my Mom left my stepd

    My boys are 3 years 8 months apart in age and it is great because my oldest is seriously the best big brother.  But going through the baby stage again - I'm glad he is our last one.  I can't wait until it is fun to travel and do stuff that wo
