One and Done

Is anyone absolutely terrified of having a second child? I have one baby and she is almost 15 months old and her daddy and I want her to be an only child like me and the thought of another child taking her attention away terrifies me. How did you get over your fear or is there anything that helped you feel better?

One and done here. We want to be able to give her the best we can and keep a balance for ourselves. It’s what’s right for our family ❤️

I want to give my son a sibling but the thought of having to go through this again sucks ass. Hopefully next time I won’t be doing it alone but shii, scary🫶🏼

We’re one and done and I’m fed up of people telling me it’s not fair on my little girl and how she needs a sibling but mentally I don’t think I could cope with another and financially we definitely couldn’t afford another! Xx

If you’re all on the same page with only having one then I don’t see why you should try for another? Take precautions to make sure you don’t have 2. Eg vasectomy or tubes tied. Or make sure you’re taking contraceptives correctly.

One is better than none here! We struggled to concieve, pregnancy was awful and we have been told it would be dangerous for me and the baby to have a second one so we locked a door that we knew it was closed.

We struggled for years having our daughter and when we finally had her she was all we wanted but I keep going back and forth on if I want another one. I really want her to be an only child but I see happy families with lots of kids and I want that too

I get that. I always wanted 2. Then it took 2 rounds of ivf to have my daughter and when I was pregnant I was one and done because it was so traumatic trying to get pregnant and I was so happy to have one. But we have 3 in the freezer. So we are trying for a second. But it does scare me a little because we have it so good right now. But then I think her having a sibling would be nice too.
