DH and I can't decide.
We have DS 5.5, DD 3.5, both healthy happy, if a bit needy kids. They squabble a lot but are cute and we love life as a four.
I always thought I'd have a third as I'm one of three and loved the dynamic growing up, I still do. I like the idea of a larger family, but we ruled it out when I fell pg by accident 2yrs ago; it felt too soon after DD, DH was working overseas a lot at the time, and so we chose to abort. Hardest decision of my life but it was right at the time.
Now that the kids are more independent and DH is back in the UK, we are contemplating trying for a third.
We have the space, a big car, financially pretty comfortable. I do struggle with the baby/toddler years - find it quite boring and tedious, but if we planned to have a DC3 to arrive when DD starts school, it could be a lot easier than when I had DS and DD both at home.
Has anyone done this? Had a larger gap between the last two? Thoughts/experiences most welcome!
