Ok, some background which (I think) is relevant,
OH left me in November 2009, after nearly 9 years, we have 2 sons together. Then last summer we got back together, but am taking things slowly, still not living together etc. He has said he doesn't want anymore children ever, as he feels 2 is enough. I would love to have another 1 or 2 but not for a few years yet. Like I say we are taking things slowly so a baby wouldn't be a good idea right now. Plus I am going to college in September, and hopefully to uni next year to start the career I have always wanted.
His sister has just had her 3rd child, and we went to visit them at the 1weekend. I was cuddling DN, and OH looked at me and said 'awww bless! We aren't having anymore though' SIL pipes in with 'I think everyone should have at least 3 or 4 children, as it is better for them to have lots of siblings!'
Maybe IABU but her comment made me so angry/upset. Firstly who says children are better off with lots of siblings? If there as been a study that proves that I must have missed it! Secondly how does she know that we want/can have/can afford more children! Surley it would be irresponsible to have anothe baby in our current situation!
I want another baby so much it hurts sometimes, but have (almost) accepted the fact that it might never happen. :(
(Obviously I wouldn't actually smack her in the face, but you know what I mean!)
