Am I crazy to want another child?

[brandnewcombineharvester]

My children are 5 and 9 and the 5 year old started school in September. i was so looking forward to having some time/ peace and quiet when he was there BUT find that I have been ever so broody, feel like someone is missing, want the feeling of a baby in my arms.
The problems are that husband not overly keen ( he likes bit of peace and quiet), have had severe PNd after both, although the 2nd time was due to my stupid Gp persuading me my maintenance dose of anti-deps were just working as a placebo so I came off them and I am 41.
am i just having 'last chance before perimenopause' and wait for it to go away or go for it?

hmm, I think this is a difficult one to answer if your dh isn't that keen. Have you chatted about it properly? I've just been reading about a close link between postnatal depression and many sufferers being deficient in zinc and omega 3 so if you did try for a 3rd maybe research this or try supplementing in case any benefit as it must have been very hard.
My aunt years later still regrets not having 3 but their reason was financial not one parent being unsure so very different.
Am not sure I've been any help but think you should chat this through more and be sure in your own mind and remember this needs to be a joint decision but it might help if you're sure what you really want or if you maybe have some instinct?!
