To have 2nd child

I have one child 18 months, he's an absolute delight, although he has his moments as all toddlers do I suppose. @He will be starting nursery for the first time at the beginning of the year. My partner has been talking about us having another child. Not now but within a couple of years. We've always talked about having 2 children but now I'm not sure if I want to have a second child or not.
My partner works full time so I will be doing the majority of the childcare on my own like I do now.
I have pnd, although I'm starting better now, I'm still on antidepressants. I'm not sure if I'll be able to cope with 2 children & going through the newborn stage all over again.
I've discussed it with my partner about only sticking with one child & the reasons why. But he thinks it's selfish not having a sibling for our DS.

Well, it's your body, OP. And ultimately, the one who doesn't want a baby should always get their way. He'll have to make his peace with it of you're not happy. Don't do it unless you want to. There's no need to rush either if you're unsure- take some time.
