I have two dcs - 13 and 5 and dh and I are about to ttc for our third and final one. I've always felt that there's a space for another one in our family. We're very lucky that our family dynamics are great; we are all very close so it all adds up to a good start for a new baby. However, I'm terrified of conceiving again - I can't explain why. I found pregnancy quite a lonely experience the second time round and dd was a very difficult baby/toddler so I'm anxious about coping with another potentially difficult baby.
I know that if I don't have another baby, I will forever regret that decision but I'm just so scared to make the leap. Does anyone else recognise these ambivalent feelings?
Any words of wisdom or advice would be gratefully received.
