One and done
Hey, who here is wanting more kids and that won’t be possible for whatever reason. How are you dealing with that? I’ve had my baby girl 19months ago and I so desperately want another and that won’t be possible for me an it feels like I am grieving a loss. I’m struggling to come to terms that I won’t get to experience that pregnancy/newborn/baby joy again.

Its hard because at this point idk if i can or not but I'm afraid to ask my doctor to find out. Plus my husband and I aren't at a place where we should have another kid and so I dont feel asking right now seems like a good idea.
Unfortunately one and done. I'd love one more but it was too hard getting my son.
Sometimes, I secretly want another, but we've been pretty agreed that we shouldn't go for another. No space, financially not a great idea etc. Then I wonder if I even have the capacity to love another because I have so much love for the family I've got, then it's a whole spiral from there.
All that is to say, feel your feelings. If that feeling is grief, so be it. Mourn. You can grow through it and come out the other side if you do. But you never will if you dont let yourself heal.
