Aaaah. Vacation is over. Military 2 week duty is over. Took a much needed leave from FB (occasionally checked things out though). Back to the grind.
DH and I have been thinking about things. He asked if we should really try for a 3rd, like can we handle it? I really should keep working, so the fact of the matter is, can DH handle a 1.5 year old and a newborn (or possible more than one with the chances I have at multiples on injectables) at night without me at home with him?
A friend told me that I would have that longing for a 3rd. I feel so lucky just to have Trey, but I think there is a slight longing....a lot of it has to do with the fact that it took us so long to get to where we are now with 2 kids, we now know what it takes to get pregnant...so why not?
If I were married, I'd try for 3 in a heartbeat! It would be rough, having them so close together, but it'll be so great when they're older.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it's a difficult choice... especially thinking multiples are more likely. My grandmother had 4 kids in 5 years (no multiples) and spoke about how tiring and difficult the early years were. Though as Shannon commented above, it is really neat to witness the bond between my dad and his siblings. :)
