Our Jan baby is our 2nd child and I'm finding it hard having to pack away her clothes she's growing out of knowing I'll never be able to have them out again and to sell them.
My heart would absolutely love another but my wallet and energy does not. (32 years old).
My partner was never really keen when I told him I was pregnant again (needed help to conceive with my 1st). But now seeing him play with her he is absolutely smitten.
I hate these feelings of wanting another, I feel like having two is the sweet spot as they can go on rides together I feel like having a 3rd would be left out.
I am squeezing in as many cuddles and contact naps as I can now.
Does anyone else feel the same?

I feel exactly the same. With my first I ended up with an emergency section, it took me two years to feel confident to start trying for our second, we struggled and it took over a year to conceive. Complications this time round has made me realise I can’t physically or mentally go through pregnancy or another c-section again.
I’m 31, myself and husband are both self employed running two separate businesses. There’s no way we would manage with 3 financially, physically or mentally.
We would have both loved 3 but realistically 2 is manageable and enjoyable and we want to do family days, holiday etc and we’d struggle with 3.
I’m soaking it all in xx

No haha, I’m 37 in July I had my daughter in January, my first born was born in 2017 I am officially done 😂 I had two traumatic births / ends of my pregnancies with both my babies. And I was a vile, hormonal wreck with my second I said never again! I’m content though I always wanted two a boy and a girl and I got a boy and a girl so I think now my heart is full and complete xx

Also in the same boat, also 32 and I’d want a 3/4 year gap again so unlikely plus we’d need to win a load of money for it to work out 🫠
