Quick Vent

FTM, 28wks. Due May. can everyone stop fucking telling me that i’m going to have another baby before this one is even born! I only want one of my own, I have a stepson too. I am happy with this choice, I do not care to constantly hear that I’m gonna change my mind once I have my newborn here. There are a number of reasons why I only want one, but I shouldn’t have to justify my reasoning behind my choices.

😂 I want more than 1, but if you already know you only want one, then they’re all lying, it won’t change when your baby is born - they’re HARD WORK 🙈 If I wasn’t so set on wanting more already, I definitely probably wouldn’t 😂

Ohh absolutely. I'm right there with you. This is a one time deal for me and hubby - again multiple reasons. And everyone is like... ah just wait, you'll have a whole brood. I'm like um no. One is our precious gift. Go away. So can't offer advice or anything but wanted you to know you're not alone!! Xx

I got told that whilst pregnant as well, and since I had our LG almost 5 months again.. I'm not sure if I want more yet as I really struggled pp due to a prolonged induction, ppa and traumatic labour so want to make sure I'm in a good place before even considering it again. My husband's response is usually " we're happy with (lg's name) for now and if we have more, that's our decision not anyone else's" I'm not sure on your reasons and frankly it's none of my business, but people are so fucking opinionated. We had comments when I chose to stop bf and pumping & switched to formula so my husband was blunt and said "well I'd rather have a fed and happy baby and a happy wife than a upset and malnourished baby and a dead wife" Sometimes being blunt works as it shuts people up as they feel uncomfortable and don't know what else to say

I get you, same happened with me and I don't even have a stepson. People said I would change my mind, he is 19 months and I'm still sure I'm one and done. If people say I should have another one I always reply "do you have 2k a month spare so I can pay nursery fees?"

I’m with you. I have 2 step kids age 13 and 15. My other half is 44, I’m 30. We thought I was infertile and just couldn’t have kids. This baby is our little miracle. He is a blessing in and of himself. I am greatful just for him. I have multiple health issues and don’t want to strain to my health that a second pregnancy would bring whilst trying to raise my son
