Boy moms and role models

Any advice on how to raise my son since his dad doesn’t have the best personality trait. I’m scared he might pick up on some of his behavior.

Like I know what I need to work on but he believes he’s perfect.

Btw I know I made my choice etc etc just provide the advice if you can thanks

Try to have positive male role models around him when dad is either around or not around. The more that the child(ren) interact with positive role models, the more they will pick up on those behaviors

PCOS/PMOS & pregnancy….

I have a 13 month old and I’ve just been told by my doctor I have PCOS/PMOS. The doctor advised if I want more children I should think about having them soon as my “levels” are high. The doctor said the older I get (I am 25) the harder it will be to convince, possibly leading to needing IVF. My partner and I want 2 children, and we would rather them close in age than having a big age gap (if we had to go down the IVF route or tried for years), it will take us years to save for IVF as we are currently saving to buy a house.

We have started trying for a baby, but it feels slightly like a chore and a lot of pressure on us both (even though we both want to do this). Has anyone else experienced this feeling?

Also I hate the feeling of waiting to see if I can conceive, the wait to know if I’m pregnant, if this is working. Has anyone else felt this way? Any positive experiences on convincing a 2nd with PCOS/PMOS?

What would you do

Just got a positive pregnancy test. My 2nd is only 8 months old. My husband does not want a 3rd! This was not planned, we've only had sex once since we conceived our 2nd!
How can I go ahead if my husband isnt on board.
Have you been in this position? What did you do?

Second kid

I hear a lot about people that have one kid and decide they're done and a lot of the reason why is because they want to give their child all the opportunities they can and think having another child would take away from that. And then there are people that say you shouldn't want a second child just to give your first a sibling because they're not lonely and they don't need it. They're valid reasons if you have decided you only want one kid but they make me feel guilty for wanting more. Like am I taking opportunities away from my first born by having another baby? Am I not thinking of the new baby as an individual by saying I do want a sibling for my firstborn?

So what are the good and acceptable reasons for wanting a second child? Or third, or fourth, or as many as you want? Is it enough to say I just know I want to experience it all again?
