pregnancy after sterilization

[mumwifemaggie]

I got pregnant after I had been sterilized in 2006. My dd is now 15 months, and I have a dd 8, and ds 4. I really didn't want another child but couldn't go thru with a termination. I had a terrible pregnancy and then a very quick delivery.

My dd is wonderful, she's so funny and cute, but i still go thru times when I wish I wasn't in this position again. It seems to get worse when my period is due, I've always been hormonal thats why I got sterilized as I had bad reactions with the pill.

No one seems to understand, my dh always wanted another child anyway so he's over the moon. I can't afford to go back to work and I'm resenting still being at home. we've talked about me working just to pay the childcare, but dh doesn't want me to go back to work as it'll affect the older dc as well.

I love my dd, all my dc, but I think I just need some adult conversation not about children. Any ideas?

so sorry you are feeling like this - i would go MAD being at home all the time

have you looked into part time work? your 4 year old, if not at school yet will be eligable to 18.5 hours free childcare so that may help

you could work 10 till 3 and then collect the little uns from nursery and the older child from school

even if your job just pays the childcare, it will stop you from going mad at home

best wishes
