@Shannon I have a 19 month age gap with my two, I just think that I definitely want a third even though I didn’t expect to want a third if you get me? I always thought I wanted two but now they’re both here I’m like “hmm”😂x
Oh I understand! I’m exactly the same ❤️ (although we always thought 3). I just cannot imagine not being pregnant again x
@Shannon I definitely want to wait until my two are older and understand more about a sibling but I’m already broody 😂 babies are too cute x
I completely understand how you feel. I have just had my 3rd baby in 3 and a half years 🙈 and I feel like I want another one already. We always said this is our last - I’m thinking that all the hormones will settle down and I will be content knowing my family is complete. Xxx
I think it’s normal to consider it. When me and my partner got together 6 years ago, we both agreed that we didn’t want any more kids or to get married. Now we have a 5 week old daughter (oops 🤦🏼♀️). I’ve already said to my partner if I was 5 years younger I’d love to have another one with him but between us we now have 4 kids (mine are 19 and 16, his is 11, plus the baby). There’s a big age gap between this baby and the last one I had 16 years ago, plus being 41 myself (I really don’t feel it) I thought being a new parent again would be so much harder than I’ve actually found it to be. We have decided though that 4 is more than enough 🤣 which just leaves getting married on the cards (which he won’t agree to!)
@Jess aw definitely once the hormones settle I might feel differently 🥹 it’s just so hard to know for sure xx
@Zoe he definitely needs to put a ring on it 💍😂 you need a medal! I am still young so I feel like I could have a gap between my two and a third but I also don’t want to wait too long? It’s so hard to know the right gap!
I have always steadfastly wanted two and now have our second and a part of me is grieving the idea that we are done. I think if I were a little bit younger we may have considered it but at 37, we are probably done 😭
@Kate it’s bittersweet for sure 🥹
Feeling the same except I change my mind nearly every day… one part of me is desperate to have another and other part is just thinking I was so lucky with my birth being so easy I wouldn’t want to chance it and have a horrific birth 😣
@Eryn all births are different! Just because you had a great birth doesn’t mean it will automatically mean you’ll have a bad one next! It’s so hard to choose with all of the different parts to think about
I never thought I'd have a baby aa I thought I'd left it too late. Anyway met my partner and we decided to try. Got pregnant straight away and eben then said this will be the only one.although I was high risk and really nauseous now looking back I had a relatively easy pregnancy. Although at the time I thought never again. Had her at 33 weeks but again all went as well as it could. We were home by 35 weeks and she most of the time is a dream. A big part of me thinks it wasn't that bad, I could do it again, especially as the firsts are starting to come and go. But then I think of the risks, my age, financial impact and think the fact it might not all go so well and I'd be even older. So I think we are probably done now, but incredibly grateful xx
Yup so many differences aspects to look at… but then I look at his precious face and I just want another 😆
I have 6week old and I feel the same lool

So glad I’m not the only one feeling it! Makes me feel normal 🫣😂
Same haha, I want another one
@Mamoona the broodiness is real 😂
Everyone has a different opinion but I’ve just had an 18 month age gap and cannot imagine any closer 🫣 I found pregnancy much harder with a toddler! And I cannot imagine if my son wasn’t able to walk, just something to consider x
