Last baby

[babychange12]

Just had dc2, and I think we will only have 2 kids. But every time I look at his little face, I feel sad that he will be my last baby. anyone else feel the same?

Yes absolutely.i have a 2yo ds and a 5yo ds. People say i won't regret a third which i think goes without saying but i also know that sticking with 2 is absolutely the best decision for me and my family. I focus on what they can do now and savouring the 'lets get on the floor and play moments'.

Saviour what they do now and make every effort to get in that moment. I look back with little regret that way. Xx

I have 4. My youngest turns 1 this month and the broodiness is starting to creep in again. But I've come to terms with the fact she's my last baby and like pp said, just savouring the moments.

Had my 3rd baby 9months ago. Difficult last pregnancy, heart issues postnatally caused by the pregnancy, and 3 sections with haemorrhaging after and swore I’d never have another baby and the yearning I’ve had the last few weeks is unreal. I dream about being pregnant and having another baby constantly.

It's hard isn't it? My rational brain says no more babies as we can't afford it and won't be fair on the older kids, but I just feel so irrationally sad that I will never have another baby

It's ok to feel sad OP, it's perfectly normal.

My DC are almost 6 and almost 4 and I'd love to be pregnant again. I think I'd be more relaxed and enjoy it more. But I don't want another child. I even looked into egg donation.

Take your time, the feelings will pass, especially if you're ever around a baby when they poop and you can hand them straight back!!

I’m only just pregnant with my second (13 weeks). Always wanted 3. We found out this one is a girl, already have a son. DH said last night he’s so glad we’re having one of each as we can definitely stop at 2 now. It really shocked and upset me! I said we don’t have to decide now, can discuss it further down the line, but he said his mind was made up. Will have to see what happens I guess but already feeling sad this may be my last pregnancy.

Nope. Nope nope nope. My second is 4.5 months. I'd honestly be devastated if I got pregnant again because I don't want to have to have a termination, but I just can't do it all again. So my DH has been moved into the spare room, him and his sperm can keep well away from me.
