Sad after baby
Just gave birth to my 5th child ( my second daughter) and once again that sad feeling of missing the pregnancy and baby moving inside me has returned. I just love being pregnant giving birth and having a new baby but I did plan on this being my last one.:( I'm so happy she's here and she is such a great baby but I can't help but be sad that I may never be pregnant again. I didn't take any permanent measures to prevent another pregnancy and neither did DH but he said he's thinks 5 is enough:( I think if I had 10 I would always be sad when the pregnancy/birth ends. I can't help but wonder if this means I'm not done (even tho I thought I was done during the pregnancy). I have 5 healthy children and have had 5 natural wonderful births maybe I shouldn't push my luck, but I'm already thinking about another baby. Hopefully this passes:( sorry for the ramble any advice or similar stories? Thanks❤️

I can relate a little to how you feel. Sometimes I think I am addicted to having babies or something. But then I think to myself it is not a bad it is what I was created to do and I love it. You should tell your husband how you feel maybe he will come around.

I think a lot of mamas on his board feel the same way. I certainly have. Not until I was pregnant with our 7th, approaching 40, did I start to think I could be ok with being done. She's 6 months old, and we still can't say we're definitely done.

I can definitely relate ?
Baby #10 due in October. I'll be 36 when he's born. I say now that this will be our last, but that always changes.?

Yes! I understand! I always wanted 4 while pregnant with number 4 I felt this overwhelming sadness that he would be the last and told hubby I couldn't be done yet it felt so final! Just had twins in December and looking forward to having more in the future lol it does feel addictive.

I would love to feel like that. I just had my third and deep inside I want more but on the other side I feel scared of not doing it well..? Im in this groups cause although I have 3 on my own, but live with 5 kiddos. Maybe is because Im not sure is if I have 3 kids or 5...my life is weird....needed to vent. sorry
