I am a mum of three girls, a 3 year old in heaven, a 2 year old and a 5 month old. I swore i didn’t want anymore children as I’ve had 3 c sections and all my pregnancies are high risk and have been tough mentally and physically. However I’m recently finding myself thinking I want just one more. Yes I’d love a little boy but I’m not bothered if I ended up with another girl. I never thought I’d want any more as I’ve gave up so much of my life already with pregnancy and due to my last pregnancy being so hard on me I was adamant I was done. If I could skip the whole pregnancy part I’d definitely have another baby, but I’m worried another pregnancy would be too hard on my body. What do I do?preg

Wait it out. You have a 5 month old. Enjoy her childhood for a year or two.

I agree and that’s what I am doing, if I did have another baby it wouldn’t be until next year to start trying the very earliest. It’s just something that I’ve been thinking about as I am 30 at the end of this year and I always wanted to have my family done before then, so like I said I just didn’t expect to even want another baby. All these emotions are quite a shock to be honest x

But why put in an arbitrary rule on yourself about being “done” at thirty. Why not see how you feel in a couple of years?
