I'm very new here so I'm just figuring this out haha
so my daughter will be 4 in March and for the past few months my husband and I have been talking (often arguing recently) about whether we want another child or not. I've come to the conclusion that I'm with it being the three of us however my husband really wants another. He thinks it would be good for her to have a sibling and learn to share which i understand but money wise I don't think it's the best idea. We're not necessarily struggling but with another mouth to feed we probably would. as for learning to share I'd say she has that fairly under control, she plays nicely with her 5 year old cousin and her nursery friends. I like being able to focus on her and her needs, I grew up with two older brother and as i got older I found it easy to hide things I didn't want my parents to know about whilst their focus was on my brothers. I realise this may never become an issue for us but i wouldn't want her to feel any less loved or for her problems to go unnoticed. My husband says I'm over thinking things but never seems to listen to my views on the situtaion
