Hi everyone! I became part of this group along with other mums. Everyone started playing asking about having more children. The majority have at least two kids and some say they would like more children in the near future. One lady said she has three under 4 and that she is planning the fourth child.
I feel guilty for not being able to give my son a sibling.
We had to go through IVF to be able to have our son. We were lucky as I got pregnant from the first try. This cycle was paid for by the NHS. We just can’t afford to pay for an IVF treatment at the moment and so we decided not to have more children.
Also nursery fees are very high and we have been struggling for the last three years. Getting there bit by bit. I always wanted to work and wanted DS to go to nursery as it is beneficial for both of us.
Should I feel guilty? Should I make an effort and pay for the treatment? That might put us into debt but would give DS a sibling hopefully. I feel really sad as I don’t want DS to be alone when we are not going to be here anymore. 😔
