Hi im new to this website, but have found myself in a bit of a muddlke and could use the advice of other mums. My husband and I have 4 children aged from 6 to 9 . My partner is self employed and we have recently started a new business together. I have been a stay at home mum for the last 9 years and now with this business im working 4 days a week and juggling the children, which is chaotic to say the least. I thought our baby making days were over and 4 was enough, but since starting this new business All I can think about is having another baby. My husband says he wouldn,t mind another one and he could do it all again. But im not sure if im feeling like this because i,ve been taken out of my comfort zone of being at home. Im 32 and dont want to leave it if we do decide to have another. Having babies is what i,ve done and what im used to where as wqorking and running a business is not. Dont seem to know my own mind. HELP.

i can only advise to think whether or not you really want another. i just knew as it was all i could think about. my first pregnancy i miscarried and i knew after that, that all i wanted was to be a mum and my daughter will be 1 on saturday and im coming up to 12 weeks pregnant with our second child :) good luck and if you do decide to have another then i hope all goes well xx

This could be what it is. However I have a very strong urge to have another baby, to be pregnant again and to hold a newborn in my arms. I do need to give this business a chance though. A time limit is a good idea, see how I feel in say 6months. Thankyou.
