If I were younger (I'm 34) and we had a crap ton more money so I could have a nanny, a chef, a personal trainer, a night baby nurse, and hire a surrogate so I could avoid being pregnant again, I'd do it. Since none of those things are happening, we're done.
Like PPs said I'd like to try for the next kid to be born when I can be off all summer break with him/her and I want to be a good candidate for VBAC. That puts as at trying again starting in July or August 2015 at the earliest.
It all depends on if I can convince DH. I'd like one more, but he's happy with the 3 of them. Plus I'll be 34 in August and don't want to be too much past 35 and pregnant, so we'll see.
We want Piper to be 3 when we start trying again. That way she will be in preschool for the second baby. Daycare is expensive and I want to establish my career.
No more babies for us . I would have liked one more hopefully a baby boy for my little girl but DH doesn't want any more. He didn't want kids before he met me and when we got married he changed his mind and then it was really hard to get pregnant and the end of my pregnancy was awful and very stressful . Now he worries about college and stuff like that. Also kids are expensive, we do well but he was only child and "privileged" I was 2 out of 4 and we grew up just fine! Kinda sad about it but can't really force him .... Or can I??? Lol
I think we'll start trying the first part of 2015. Probably around March bc I dont want to be enormously prego in the middle of summer, yuck! We both want a big family and I lurve babies!! Have all the babies!
We are planning to start trying when LO turns 1. My only hesitation is that I love him so much I don't want to miss any of his babyhood by dealing with a pregnancy then of course a newborn.... BUT DH and I both agree I'm not getting any younger so we don't want to waste time. (I will be 35 this July so would be at least 36 when I have number 2).
We will start trying in October of this year. Even though DH is convinced I'm prego now! I've been craving everything I did with DS and feeling nausous and dizzy. I'm pretty positive I am not. But if I am..... Well that would suck!!! A lot!!!! And I'm putting all blame on him
I really thought I wanted two, but babies are hard. And I feel so lucky to have had an easy pregnancy and delivery and a very healthy little girl. I think I might be one and done.
