I have 2dcs aged 2 and 7 and am considering trying for dc3. I am 36 and my dh wants another dc. He works ft and I work 2 days a week. Our parents provide childcare so we are lucky in that respect. The things that concern me are that I have read how things are difficult with 3, ie the world is set up for a family of 4!Also I hate being pregnant. It makes me feel ill, I get quite anaemic and had spd last time which made life hard. I just feel I will regret not at least trying for a 3rd. It doesn't really make sense but I don't feel quite "done"!

YANBU. Try for number 3 if you want to and can financially and emotionally provide for another child.

I'm going to go for three and then maybe even four!

Honestly I found 2 to 3 the hardest. Trying to do homework with dc1, while trying to give dc2 the attention they needed while being a walking zombie doing night feeds with dc3. The first year was horrendous but it's getting better
