hi it's me again posting as I have been thinking on the weekend about this sooo much why I want another baby and I can't find a reason... my husband won't even consider another one but I just can't stop thinking about it. My husband is saying that he can't go through another 2 years of sleep deprivation, sickness, etc.. and he wants have an easy life. We have no family to help. I work full-time so as my husband, very demanding careers and we choose to have luxuries as well. I also can't be a stay at home mum as this will drive me mad. do you think it's selfish to choose an easier life, obviously life with 2 kids would be busier and another 2 years of hard work. my husband does not want to re-live it. but if he agreed to it, I would do it, but I also suffer with body issues, and anxiety so I am thinking should I just go with him and accept this or keep pushing it until he agrees (this might be never) but I just feel like I need to make a decision and move on, does anyone feel this way? What if another child make our life really stressful?
I feel like having an only is the easy way out (please don't judge) as you can still work and have a comfortable life but with 2 children I am not sure???
my close friend is saying that don't make a decision and just wait another year. I am 37 so I don't want to wait too long and also I just can't not make a decision. it's driving me mad...
