I am a mom to a handsome 6 year old boy!! Me and my husband have been thinking about having another but I'm a little undecided. I have baby fever so bad but not sure if I want to go through with it yet or not. My 6 year old is spoiled rotten and is definitely my little baby and I'm afraid having another baby is going to make him feel like I don't want him anymore or that I am trying to replace him. I don't want that to happen. I'm more than happy with just my one child but I'm thinking of the future because one day mommy and daddy aren't going to be around and I want him to have at least one sibling. My question is, did any of you have this feeling that you were going to hurt the older child?

Thank you! That made me a feel a lot better ladies 😀 including him in doctors appointments and things would be great! I had my son when I was a baby myself, 16 years old. If I had been older I would have liked to had them two years apart. But being so young that wasn't even an option. And my thinking is, when me and my husband pass on, will be baby have to go through that alone? At least with a sibling he will have someone to lean on, someone who knows how he feels, and they'll be able to comfort each other. I hope that if/when I become pregnant that he won't feel this way. Because he's always going to be my baby, even when he has babies of his own ❤️

By the way, that's really smart! I keep saying I'm done with my one daughter (my labor was really rough.), but thinking that one day my husband and I won't be here, it WOULD be nice for her to have a sibling... That's really got me thinking. My husbands gonna love you for that! Haha. He's already talking about, "...in three years when we try for another..." Hahaha

Children will adjust. I wouldn't worry too much - like the previous poster said, make sure to include him in doctors appointments, and picking out baby things. He's old enough to understand that you can love BOTH babies 😊 I would wait until you're totally comfortable with the idea though. You don't want to get pregnant, and then realize you're not fully ready. I would start talking to your son, and let him know that maybe someday there will be a baby..get him used to the idea ❤️
