It makes me wonder if I want another? LOL A third would be wonderful and I work from home anyways, but I wonder if I can handle another pregnancy.

How did you handle your third pregnancies with small children around? I feel like it is a year long thing where I feel tired and crappy all the time and I cant stand it.

But, I love the chatter in my house with the kids and want more of it.

Man, I cant decide!

I am 99% sure we are going to have another. I will be more scared than when I got pg with e though. I was naive then. Luckily I don't feel sick the whole pregnancy. I am waiting until Alex is in school FT though so that I only have one at home. I am trying to decide whether to wait until E is older (5/6) and then having another two. Or just have one more when E is three and being done.

Its not bad. Im handling it, LOL! M/S was aweful (a first for me, never had it that BAAAAD with my boys) but I managed. That time was the worse for me. Feeling aweful and dealing with impatient, loud whiney kids. Once over that hump, things got better. It easier too when both kids are more by themselves too and dont need you all of the time.
Dh helped with supper when I felt the worse. Had to sit outside to get away from the food smell. So breakfast and lunch were what I could bare to smell and handle.

Isaac had school so that made things MUCH easier. Plus when he is at school, Carson naps. So there is some relax time for me.

Now Im scared and worried about having 3 here. EEK! Less than 2 weeks, AHHHHHHH!

3 is enough for us. No more. Im at peace with everything, even if this baby ends up being another boy. Dh is getting snipped.

We will be ttc next year and i freak out about how i will handle everything but i want a baby so much that i don't care.

DH knows he has to help out. I was sick the whole time with Deana as well as a difficult pregnancy. But at least i know what i'm getting into and can prepare.I'm lucky that Deana will be in preschool and Marcus in kindergarten.
Can you talk to your ob about meds etc.. to help.
I have a feeling that you will go for it!

I'm currently of the mindset that everyone should be having more babies!! That being said, even though we are TTC, I still have huge waves of doubt. I keep telling myself that it is a good place to be. I'd be happy with another, but I'd also be happy with what I have.

I'm just wishing that I had kept more of our baby stuff...

I think coming on here tonight didn't help me...all this talk about babies! I've sold everything! no more baby stuff. I have a Mirena but I sure doubt myself, I could write a novel with my thoughts. Lately I`ve been thinking baby a bit too much. I know we have deceided that we are done, we are having a wonderful time right now and our future plans are awesome but still the thought of another one even two more is in the back of my mind...I must be crazy ... 4? I hardly have the patience for 2! hee hee!!

My pregnancies are pretty easy. However, the third was the most tiring, and I felt like I couldn't go on at times, but you do and now, in retrospect, it didn't seem like that long. It couldn't have been so bad b/c we are going to go for #4. Having 3 is so, so wonderful, that I highly recommend it. It is totally busy in our house, though, all the time. People say that 3 is as crazy as it gets and that if you can handle 3, you can handle any number. Good luck w/ your decision! You can't lose either way

Ok I think you should have another one. Simply because you said you love the chatter and you work from home like I do so you know how that is.

If the only thing holding you back is the pregnancy part then you should go for it! That's only nine months of your life! That's totally worth having another one if you want a bigger family! Ya know?

We went back and forth a lot! I wasnt worried about the pregnancy part because my pregnancies were a breeze w/ both girls. Im more worried about how Im going to balance my work at home w/ 3 kids!
And here I am feeling exhausted and sick all day long. So maybe you'll have a very easy pregnancy this time!!!!

Come on, you know you wanna! Join the club! If the pgncy is what you're worrying about, really, is avoiding that little bit of misery worth giving up the opportunity for another sweet little voice/life/person in your home and family? What is it people say---you don't regret having another, you only regret NOT having another. You should do it!

Sue--I think you should have another if you think that because you work at home it would be easier. You obviously manage very well! I have a whole other post but I won't derail your thread. I'll start another one.

Seriously, even though I don't think I could manage more than one child and my job and the rest of my life I would be right there. I've always understood the multiplying the love thing and I love the idea of a big family.
