Occasional Lurker

in One & Done: Only child
First off - i love coming to this board - it makes me feel happy - and I need to join in more often.

Secondly - THANK YOU ALL for being here and reminding me that my choices are my choices and no one else's business.

My DS is a wonderful handful at nearly 1.5 and truth be told I love him so much that I don't want to have to share my resources - time, money, love- with any other kids. 

How do you re-buff nosey ninnies?!

    Me- (throws head back and laughs like they just said the funniest thing ever.  Sometimes I snort for effect.  Then I stop, look into their eyes and say"bless your heart!")

    Exactly. I literally laugh and say, we're good. Most people quit after that.

    And welcome!

    Welcome! I remind them that having another is too risky for me due to pregnancy complications. Sometimes I feel kind of lucky to have that excuse to give because we probably would be OAD anyway. People can be so pushy about having more kids. I honestly get asked when we'll have another one at least every other day!

    Welcome!! I get the whole, but you NEED to give DS a sibling!!! I just laugh and remind them that it's our decision and that unless they are buying us a new house, paying for daycare, or sending us on our yearly Disney trip (all that we can afford with one child), we are done having kids. They usually chuckle and change the subject.
