I know we're all different but I suppose Im interested in what the majority say.
Do you know when your finished having children? or is it a case of having to stop? How do you know?
Is it a reason like financial stability/ space/ relationship stability etc.. that is the decider for most or is there something physical or mental that makes a woman just know shes finished with ever having more?
How can someone be so sure that they would consider sterilisation etc..?
Im really intriged as Im pregnant with number 3 at the minute. 3 would be perfect for us to stop at for so many reasons and would be very sensible but after number 1 and number 2 I knew I wasnt finished (despite hating pregnancy), Im wondering when I will loose this feeling? will the broodiness just cease on its own or does my sensible mind just have to come in to play and say "enough is enough". Im really hoping theres something physiological that makes me just stop!.
My aunt tells me one of her biggest regrets in life was not to have another child. . I really worry about this.
