I have a 10 year old DS and two slightly older stepdaughters. I'd quite like another child- I'm fairly broody but not massively so.
I'm worried about the effect on my/our lives if we have another.
I'm worried about the effect on my son (who btw really wants a brother/sister but not sure he really understands how it will effect him), my dsds, and the impact on my relationship.
I know that every relationship's different, but I do wonder how it is when you have step children, and then have one of your own. Do the others feel left out? My son and dsds seem to be very cognisant of the step-nature of their relationship and as I'm not massively broody, I'm not sure what to do.
( my husband would love another).
Any perspectives appreciated.
