Hi
So I have been grappling with the decision to try for another or stick with one child for a few months and due to my age nearly 40 I need to decide now.
I am an only child and don't recall feeling lonely growing up but I know my parents probably had to put a lot of effort into ensuring that I didn't. So can I ask parents with one do you have to entertain your child a lot or do you just have lots of their friends over? I'm not keen on the effort of having to have playmates over all the time to be honest but recognise that might be the only option if we are not going to give ds a sibling. Even if I got pregnant tomorrow there would be a 4 year gap so no guarantees that he and a potential Sibling would play together anyway I suppose
Thanks
