Basically what' you've described, when you and your body feel ready. A lot of people never get there or the idea disgusts them, so I think that we know what we're ready for, even with a difficult pregnancy preceding it. My last pregnancy ended horrifically, but I knew that I needed time to both physically and mentally heal, prepare for a transabdominal cerclage, then physically and mentally heal, again. When I finally felt ready, I told my husband, bought a digital ovulation tester and my favorite digital pregnancy tests, and went full throttle with no regrets.
When I saw that the stick I peed on said I was pregnant. That's how I knew I was ready😂
For me I never got that feeling that I was “closing a chapter”. When my doctor asked me if I planned on tying my tubes I told her No. Even though my S/O said we were done I just had that nagging feeling we were not. My second son was about 2.5 when my S/O came to me saying he wanted another and wanted a girl. If you feel like you are not done than you probably are not: You will regret not having another if you go against what your feeling but you’ll never regret having another. I’m in my first trimester with my third and I now feel the feelings of being Done and closing that chapter.
