I know its a big issue that many people grapple with but just wondering really. DH and I decided to ttc DC 3 early summer as I felt I wanted one more and persuaded him, I then thought I was PG for a few days and was relieved with a negative test. We've discussed this over and over and the only things stopping me having two are; money, career, space in the house. I think they're pretty big things tbh and DH feels we are 'done' and feels we should focus on the two we have. Part of me worries I may regret it in a few years but part of me feels the baby bit is too much to go through to get a bigger family. DS 4.3 and DD 2.5
Older women at work with grown up children seem to wish they'd had more but there seems to be an element of rose tinted glasses there cos when I push them on this I get comments like, 'actually I couldn't have coped with more than 2 teenagers' etc. I just wish I felt 100% sure
