I have two beautiful perfect children; a boy and a girl. I adore them but not going to lie - it's hard work! I'm so lucky I have help and incredibly supportive husband. We are fine financially and for that I'm so grateful. I'm 40 and yet here I am thinking... do I want a 3rd? I'm so lucky to even have had one healthy child little own two and now I want a 3rd? What's wrong with me! Should I? Help please mother's of 2+ or anyone who can offer me some advice! Thank you so much x

What would the age gap be in you theoretically had another this year?

Oh hello! So if I got pregnant today and had the baby in September then the age gap would be 0, 17 months and 3 years and a half... meanwhile I wouldn't even start trying until April which would be a year from my last baby to make sure my C section has completely healed.

However, I feel a bit more at ease with the reality that I am so, so blessed to have two healthy and beautiful children who bring me now and will forever joy and blessings. So I am not certain we will try for a 3rd. How lucky I feel to have 2. Wow x

I’m in a similar situation, im 40, but have a 6 and 14 year old! So my head is saying no, life is much easier now. But my second child is my husbands only biological one and he would love another, and we will have space for one more, So very tough decision!
