I feel so conflicted lol! Part of me doesn't want any more babies, but part of me wants another?? Not for a very long time lol, but I do.
The reasons part of me doesn't want another are kinda like, eh. My labor was a horror story, I actually ended up with PTSD. My PPD was out of control. And the newborn phase was a nightmare. All of it just wasn't enjoyable, and even now Isabelle is so much work that I'm just like "NEVER AGAIN."
But I do kinda want another one though, when we're all older and more financially stable. I want a chance to have the birth I planned on, I want the chance to actually enjoy the newborn phase. Idk🤦 David's set that he doesn't want any more, though.

*sighs* I'm right there with you! My pregnancy and labor were pretty smooth but babies and toddlers are a lot work and I'm just not sure if I want more. We're young and there's a lot we haven't done since we had a child so young and having more kids would only increase the challenges. But at the same time another sweet wittle babe would be so cute 🤗 and being able to plan my pregnancy would be nice. I'm still on the fence but hubby really wants at least 2 more 😩 I just keep reminding myself I'm not getting pregnant today so I still have time lol

Same same same here! I don't think I'd ever enjoy the newborn phase but I think I can manage to not cry every day all day next time around. I've learned some tricks in my experience thus far plus help from other moms that I think I can handle it a bit better next time. Not that it'll be easier but I'm more understanding. I hope whatever your future holds for you that you enjoy it for everything that it is. Much love
