Is there a such thing as having “cold feet” when it comes to having another baby?
I’ve wanted to have another baby for months, maybe even a year. My husband finally mentioned about trying. Now once in awhile I’m like… maybe I’m happy just the way I am, maybe I should leave things the way they are. Then I go back to wanting to try. Hopefully this makes sense. I guess the main question is; if I truly wanted another baby, would I be questioning myself?
Thoughts please.

Yes, you could still question. Many reasons why.
1. Change is scary. Especially when it means that the chance will effect your current child(ren), and not knowing how that looks.
2. Wanting something for so long that you subconsciously think it will never happen, then getting the green light can confuse your conscious mind.
Totally Normal. You just need to fully understand why yes and why no. Make a list. Take your time. Then review the list and decide
Thank you

Girl, yes! I finally decided to try back in February and now I’m due Nov with my 2nd.
Congratulations!

This is me right now. Things are going well and I actually never thought I’d want another child because of how difficult it has a been for me, especially with sleeping. I’m scared to go down that road again but I’ve been having so much baby fever lately. Idk what I’m going to do.
