Only child - I cried this morning

Girl forget ur sister in law. Do what is best for you and your baby. I know that God doesn’t put more on us than we can bear 🩷🩷🩷. Don’t let your partner side of the family dictate your mental health especially since they haven’t been helping yall. You feel like 1 child is enough right now that’s good. Don’t feel bad for doing what u know is right you and your family. God, your baby and partner and also yourself needs you to be strong and healthy and happy. Do what makes you happy and comfortable 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

I’m here if you need to talk. And we were not made for other ppl validations just ignore them and does your partner take up for you when his family have negative thins to say?

Most people are having one baby nowdays. I'd list the pros to her, well we will have more money for our child. They wont have to share or have sibling fights. They will know how to make good friendships and learn to be independent. Or just tell her to have more kids and see what she says.

I say this as a mum of two as well who loves it. You absolutely are doing the right thing having one. Your health is very important.

I have a sister and 6 half siblings and I have no relationship with any of them. I don’t know any siblings who are close as adults tbh, so it’s certainly not a guaranteed thing. Don’t stress it.

Siblings are overrated!
My older son (14, from a previous relationship) has no interest in his little brother & sister. Spends all his time at his dads or with friends. I doubt it’ll change as they get older.
Also I only have a decent relationship with my sister but not my 2 brothers. I think maybe if you have 2 sons or 2 daughters close in age you might get a nice close relationship but otherwise it’s not guaranteed. You stick with your choice hun, as long as your child is loved and has friends growing up they will be just fine xx

Me and my sister never had any common interests growing up, now we’re adults we don’t talk unless it’s a family event, no fall out or anything.. just two complete different people 🤷‍♀️ overrated imo

There is absolutely no reason to feel sad for your little boy! Honestly can not stand people who say shit like this. Having more than 1 child does not guarantee those children get along, some children with siblings feel more alone than only children. Please do not feel guilt over this.

I am one and done for medical reasons and I also get the comments from idiots sometimes but I would rather be the best mum I can be to 1 than be unable to cope with 2. In my eyes that is even less fair on my son, he will never be alone, he will make friends and he has other family. Please focus on your family and ignore the idiots with no idea what they are saying or how hateful their words are.

If you're in a good place, that's the most important thing. Make sure he has lots of contact with kids his age in his family or with friends.
