cinnamon, you sound like there is a slight possibility of another? I thought it was a definite no-no with DH? Do you still hold hope of changing his mind? I think about it daily 
. I almost wish I could persuade myself that we're done - we could sit back & enjoy life, things getting easier as the boys grow up, go on holidays, trips out etc, not have to go through hip pain, labour, sleepless nights again...but but but.... I can't stop thinking I'll never have the pregnancy, tiny baby, one yr old again.....argh! My sister being pregnant also brings it home. I feel I could persuade DH if I tried... But not sure if I should... But also feel more likely to regret not having one than having one too iyswim!!

That's exciting newmum001!! I was pregnant with Luke when ds1 was Luke's age. So I know how you feel about them getting older.
I also think the same dixiebell! I rarely take the pushchair out now, you can do almost everything without having to prepare a lot. My two get on so well and I worry what a third would do to that equilibrium. We do things now without dss as he doesn't want to do the same as the other two because he's that much older and ds1 will be in that situation but he won't have anywhere else to be so will have to dragged everywhere with his little brothers.
Dh said no more because of money and him not getting any younger (he's 48 Monday) but I had a huge cry fest a while ago when I just couldn't hold it in and he said he hadn't seriously considered it because he didn't realise how much I wanted it. He did say because of my income we could consider one due around when Luke starts school so I can still have the same number of minded children but we would have to buy another car and just don't have the money to do that!!!! If house prices increase reasonably we could put some of our debt into the mortgage and finances wouldn't be so tight but I feel like time is running out to decide, I don't want to be considered a geriatric pregnant lady, it was a pain being an obese one!
And my mums response...... you don't want another one after losing all the weight as you'll put it back on again 
. Ah well I won't bother then as my weight is obviously the most important thing in my life!!!
