I always thought I would have at least 3/4 kids as I am 1 of 4 and even my aunts and uncles always had multiple children so I grew up in a big family.
I have a DC who is almost 3 and to be honest I really feel as if I am one and done.
The birth was life threatening but and I caught multiple infections subsequently but even that didn't put me off as I wanted DC to have a sibling(s).
I used to be quite vain and even the stretch marks, the skin on my belly didn't put me off as I really wanted more kids during the new born phase as back in the new born days I found it quite easy to be honest.
But the last year has been truly horrific in terms of his behaviour.
Constant tantrums (especially when we are out).
The constant whining and crying if he dosent get his own way.
The spitting.
Throwing things at me.
He was a brilliant sleeper until 10 months and I am still waking up multiple times a night (about 3/4)).
I am just exhausted and drained.
OH is pretty useless and we have varying opinions on parenting which means we clash.
I just know I can never go through this again and when I think about dealing with 2 kids it would be too much for me to deal with.
Has anyone been in a similar situation and then regretted it?
