AFTER THIS BABY ARE YOU GOING TO HAVE ANOTHER ONE? (old post)

I am currently pregnant with my second baby and I get the same old question are you going to have a third baby? Haven’t, even had this baby yet. But, being asked this question is pretty messed up.

When I explain to people that after this second one, I physically can’t have any more children they pretty much ignore what I say and tell me that you are still young. I am 34 years old. This pregnancy is high risk just like my first. It would be too hard on my body to push for another pregnancy.

To have a third and be high risk again is physically and mentally hard on me. It’s frustrating when people try to tell me how to live my life and what I should do with it and my body. I would have loved to have had more kids but I just can’t physically do it anymore.

Jaxson and baby number 2 are enough for the hubby and I. I wanted to have 4 kids because being an only child was lonely for me. Not having any brothers or sisters to go to when frustrated, sad, being bullied, having my heart broken or etc. I didn’t want Jaxson to grow up lonely as I did. I wanted to have a big family so my children have each other. We are going to have 2 kids and I am okay with that.

If the husband and I want more kids there are other ways to look at that like adoption because there are soooo many children that need a loving home. I have decided to get my tubes tied after this baby. It’s something that the husband and I discussed. It’s a decision I made for myself because I know my body and what I need to do for myself.
