We have one DS who we absolutely adore and who has been a good baby/toddler so far. We've pretty much made the decision that we'll stick at one without making it 'official' as such.
I'm fine with this - I don't think I want any more, don't feel broody, like the lifestyle we can afford with only one and don't feel that anything is missing from our family. Of course, this may change in the future and I realise that.
3 of my friends have recently announced they're having another and it's making me think about whether sticking with one is the right decision. For some reason, I feel pressure from somewhere (I don't know where.....society maybe) that it's not right to only have one child. Is this normal? Do/did you question your decision to stick with one? I don't know what's come over me.....it's amazing how you can be so influenced by what is deemed to be the 'normal' family!
