Another Baby???

[JoJoey45]

I have a question I have an 8 month old first baby I've split from my partner.... I can't stop thinking about having another baby I think i must be mad and it would be easier staying as I am but I can't help thinking I haven't got much time left if I do want another ??? Is it normal to feel this way?? 🤔🤔🤔

Not really enough info there to answer. How old are you OP? It's possible you're just feeling like you are as a bit of a shock reaction to the split. Maybe you envisaged having more children with your ex and that picture has suddenly had to change. If I were you, I'd take some time to readjust to your new situation and then decide whether another baby is still something you want

I can understand how you feel, I knew I wanted another baby, when DS1 was just 4mths old. It is much harder work going from one to two, but totally worth it. My circumstances were different though. Good luck OP.

Nobody can tell you whether the timing is right or wrong, but with a young baby and having split from your partner you have quite a lot on your plate right now. Another pregnancy and baby would be a huge undertaking and not one that many would willingly volunteer themselves for.

This is one of those situations where if it were me I'd want to really interrogate where your wish for another child comes from. Can you get some counselling sessions?

Thankyou for your replies I'm 39 next year and yeah I know it wouldn't be a good situation and that's why I'm torn I didn't expect to be on my own I guess
