To have another baby or not ..

I have a step daughter (12) and a daughter (5). I keep going back and forth with wanting another or not . I personally hate their age gap so I’m Def worried about that. And I feel like somehow I’m “running out of time” . I’m 34. And some days I just am happy to be alone at target when the kids are at school … then other days I still feel like I have a void of wanting another baby. Has anyone felt like this ? I know there’s never a right answer …

How does your husband feel about it? Have you sat down and looked at what the pros and cons would be for the whole family?

@Sophie he and I both keep going back and forth . I think the main thing is that we both really wanted to have another but we’ve had a couple miscarriages after our daughter so we both tread lightly on saying we want another . It’s like we want another but we’ve also tried to be at peace or accept that it may not happen .

Maybe it’s a case then of agreeing how long you’ll try for, and also agreeing on an alternative vision of your family life if it doesn’t work out within that time frame
