It’s a completely individual decision. I always wanted 3 children, so for me it was always going to be a yes. I loved being pregnant, having newborns, bringing a new life into the world (sounds cringey).
Nobody can tell you what to do, they can give you opinion - eg 2 kids is enough - but if you want a 3rd then go for it. If you don’t, then don’t.
The transition from 2 to 3 was easier than 1 to 2 for me, so didn’t rock the boat too much. My boys have their own rooms & we are financially stable enough to bring them up (all being well, obviously cannot predict the future)

I'm living the 3rd baby right now. He is 3 weeks old. I have an 18 month old and 6 year old. I'm finding it very difficult to balance and them all their individual attention they need. I have sever mum guilt at the moment as my 18 month old and 3 month old really need my full attention and I simply can't give it. Hopefully it gets easier and I'm sure it will. I don't regret in the slightest having my 3rd, but I have found going from 2-3 much much harder than 1-2. There's no right or wrong answer to your question. If you have the support from your partner and family then go for it. X
