You need to decide, in yourself, if your wanting to have another baby is due to:
- that you want another baby and having a bigger family, or
2) that it is your biological clock, that is ticking away? And you are thinking about your age.
3) That is it maybe because your existing kids are getting older and you "miss" having a "baby?" So therefore, you want another baby?
4) That you know, you want 3 kids. And always did?
5) Or you just miss being pregnant?
The thing is, with any Mom, as our existing kids grow up and get older... we "miss" having a baby around. Thus, we may want to get pregnant again etc. and have another "baby."
But we have to discern, our real.... reasons for wanting another baby or not. Rationally.
Me, I have 2 kids. My last and youngest child is 6. My son. It is really bittersweet... seeing him grow up. I wish he was still a "baby." So sad as I watch him grow up. I have thought it would be so nice to have another baby...... but, I KNOW, that 2 kids is enough, for me. I KNOW... that this is just a Rite Of Passage... as a Mom, to see my kids growing up. Not being babies, anymore. And it is just "growing pains".... for a Mom. Seeing my kids grow up. Like an "empty nest" feeling.... as my kids are getting older. My oldest, my daughter, is 10... and will be going to middle school next year. OMG!
But I KNOW... 2 kids are enough for me.
My Husband, wouldn't mind more kids. He comes from a big family. My kids have even told me they want another sibling, a baby.
But no.
I know, 2 kids are enough for me.
Even if I get.... sorta "sad" seeing them grow up.
I know... I am done.
I, as a Mom... just have to adjust to... seeing my kids grow up and get less... attached to me.
It is life, phases. For a Mom.
