Anyone on the fence?

My pregnancy was easy up until delivery which ended in a C-section so I can't get pregnant for another 2 more years anyway. But man I'd love to give my son a sibling without having to deal with the stress of having another mouth to feed. We are financially stable and okay but mentally I don't feel like we can handle having another kid. My fiance is pretty much leaving it up to me. I feel so torn and guilty for not wanting to provide a playmate for my son.

I swore I was done when my son was born. Then around 6m after he was born we found out we were pregnant again. I was so angry. Eventually I grew to love that little bean in my belly and am so glad she is with us. They are now 20m and 6m. I wouldnt change anything now. Pregnancy was really hard and I was sick for my last 2 and I made sure I cant have any more.

I was an only child theres nothing sad about being an only child. I was/am super outgoing so I always had friends sleeping over and my mom was also my bestie! Im pretty sure im going to keep my boy an only child as well I want to be able to focus on just him and give him my 100%

@Sarah that's my thing too. To be able to give him 💯. I'm not so good at dividing my attention equally. I have 2 siblings including a twin and it was chaotic growing up. If I had to have another kid my max would be two but for now I'm happy with just one I can give all my love to. Now because of that I need to find him a friend. Lol

There’s no rush! My son is nearly 6 and his little sister was born in December, they get along great :)

No rush. My stepdaughter and son are 10 years apart. She is a big help and juat adores her little brother to pieces and her little brother loves her.

I feel exactly the same. It’s such a tough decision! 😭
