Come to a crossroads, don't know which way to turn....

So, feeling a bit lost and could do with some MSN advice. In short, have dd (5) and ds (2), DH and I would like a third. Started TTC and had two MC (Nov07 and Mar08). TTC again for 2 months now and AF just turned up. It's made me question whether a third is truly what we want and I'm now so confused. If it had been straight forward - get pregnant, have baby - it would be fine, but I'm just wondering if it's all too much effort with the potential of having another MC (no history before Nov07)? Also are we pushing our luck - have two fabulous kids, maybe we should be grateful and stick with that? But then we both love the thought of having a larger family. But then there's the extra cost, workload, stress, is it really much harder with one more...?

H-E-L-P!!

I didnt find going from 2 to 3 any harder, but there was a 7 year gap between 2nd and 3rd. I found that there was already too much toys, piles of junk and a washing mountain so another 1 didnt make much difference.

Thanks, I can imagine it's almost like having your first again, only with the experience this time! Don't think I could wait that long - I'd be in my mid-forties and probably with zero energy!
