Not sure whether I'm posting in the right place so apologies if I'm not....
Have a 12 months old DD and she just lovely. DH is mad keen for another one.
When I look at DD I think she's so wonderful and how could I not want another one and I think: "yes lets do it". But I also catch myself thinking about the practicalities of having 2 (So close together and we've no family nearby and DH works long hours and is sometimes away on business).
Its hard to decide. My age means that we cannot hang around too long and procrastinate. And I am really torn on this issue.
What makes me question having another baby, are things like: "will I be pushing DD aside" - "will I be able to handle two small ones" - "will it be so much work that I will not enjoy the early years of my children"?????
Any experienced MNers outthere who've gone for several babies in quick succession and what it was like??
Particularly keen to hear experiences of older (35++) mothers.
Many thanks to you all.
