Do you want another child or do you just want your children as a newborn again? That’s the question I asked myself - I have 2 and will not have another, I just know. I don’t have anymore to give and I’ll be happy raising 2 little humans. I’d love to have them as a newborn for a day or so again but mostly excited to see them grow.
I’ve had 3 and feel done! I could keep having babies forever but equally I just know my body and brain are so tired. I’m blessed beyond measure. My pregnancy’s escalated in difficulty each time and I just couldn’t put myself (or my husband and kids through it again). I think I’m in a bit of a period of mourning for this stage of life because I just know that we’re at our limits and it’s sad knowing the baby stage is done for us but I equally know I couldn’t do it all again. I know it’s stupid but I never wanted to walk into a shoe shop and not be able to just buy my kids shoes if they need it and I know another baby would push us past the point of being okay financially. Mentally I feel ready to get my brain back and a bit of routine for myself. There’s soooo many factors but I just know I’m done. I know that doesn’t necessarily help haha x
