I need some advice.
I have two children aged 10 and 8. I’ve recently turned 30 and my partner has thrown into a few conversations recently that he would like to have another baby.
We have a small 2 bed house (which we plan to extend), I have recently started a degree and my partner is also self employed (doing extremely well).
I feel completely undecided as I feel we are starting to get ourselves back a little. Being able to go out and not worrying if they have settled with their grandparents. Taking the kids places they both enjoy. The children are more independent and before we know it they will be starting secondary school. I can’t help but think we would be “starting all over again” where the other two will be leaving home we- will still have a little one! I also had 2 csections, one an emergency. So I’m aware of the risks of having another.
Another side of me is saying I’m being ridiculous and would love to have another. Our two weren’t exactly planned so maybe I feel scared as this one would be! Obviously I’m so grateful for what we have now. I’d really appreciate any advice or if anyone else has been in this situation? Thanks and sorry for the long post! X
