Hello! Any Mamas of 2 now thinking of a 3rd?

[littlemonkey]

I'm surprised at the number of people saying they always wanted four kids. Coming from a family of four, it made my mind up that four is a very bad idea!!

I'm the youngest of five and I loved it haha. I would like more than 4 but my hubby would definitely need persuading on that one!

I'm the oldest of 4. I had a wonderful childhood and get on amazingly with all my siblings. OH is one of 6!!!!

If money was no object I'd not be as adverse to a 3rd. It wouldn't be anytime soon though. I'd want Bee to be older and then I'd be too old. Lol.

I'm really close to all my siblings too I have 4 older brothers! I just noticed in my post I put 7 weeks pregnant and not 7 weeks old! Tired mama typing haha

Is it the little ones age making us broody? Like they aren't little babies anymore? All the bumpage seems so long ago!
Hoping to catch number 2 here this year.
My sister had her 2 a boy and girl within 2 years... Then 8 years later she had another one and is not considering number 4!!

I'm an only child and always wanted 4!!!
We have two boys just turned 4 and almost 3 and a 6 month old little girl, it's hard work - but I love it! However I'm going back to work in a few weeks so not sure how it will be then...
Go for it you will only look back in years to come and wished you had xx

I would love a third. We have 2 boys, one just turned 3 and one who is 16 months. I just want to be pregnant again and have the whole excitement of not know what we're having, scans etc, but I'm not sure I would cope! Although if we did have a third then my eldest would be at school as he starts school in a years time so wouldn't be too bad. The bigger car thing puts me off too. But I hate the idea of not being pregnant again.

Go for it if you have been thinking about it. I am currently ttc my third too, my two girls are 3 and 2 and I miss being pregnant too. I actually miss the newborn stage too. I was also thinking about how we'd have to get a big family car but I came round to that idea and well with the odd family number with holidays can be sorted by having four kiddies hehe but in all seriousness if you have been thinking about it you should talk to your husband. You don't want to regret it in later life x

I'm the eldest of 8 and had an amazing childhood. I only had my first two weeks ago but I def want a big family.

I think deciding to have a baby is terrifying. It's costs sh!tloads of money. It's exhausting and hard work. Pregnancy and labor can be scary. Sleepless nights and colic and engorged breasts and all the newborn joys. I think if we think about having children in a selfish way, humans would go extinct. It is no easy path. But somehow most of us really want kids. It's in our nature really & it's honestly super rewarding. I say follow your heart! You will regret it if you don't.

I would love a 3rd!! (And maybe a 4th)

I am one of 7 children and loved having lots of brothers and sisters. I am completely happy with 2 children, but all being well we definitely want more. I would have another anytime, but hubby is keen to have a break now of at least a year before trying for another. Ideally then we would have another quite soon after. I don't particularly enjoy being pregnant, but love having a baby in the house.

I would love a 3rd, I have always said I would love 4 children. However, I am at a stage where I've had my 2 gorgeous girls pretty close together and I feel I need a break from either being pregnant or breastfeeding. lol We have a good set up and I would be scared that another baby would upset that, but then I wouldn't know until we had another right?

If we were to have another baby (or 2) I would want the girls to be in school.

If you feel you want another then go for it xx

Go for it, things are tighter with money, space , time etc, but the other rewards are just as huge -
No regrets having so many kids , but god I was regretting not having more before i got my sterilisation reversal op/ivf and having my last two babies.

Just had my gorgous 5 th boy Griffin, and I have 1 lovely daughter too and im becoming a nun to make sure we dont get preg again, but now can move on ( at 42) happily

lynds go for it, dont look back x

 

[mum2b410]

No more for me hun!! After the 2 42 week pregnancies and going through pnd twice I don't think I can put myself or family through it again!!
Good luck to you though hun- hope it works out whichever way u go xxx
