He’s done but I’m not

My husband and I have always agreed on having three up until first was born. We now have had number two who is about to be at the age that I want to try for number three. He is adamant that we are done. I don’t think that I would ever stop wondering about and longing for that third (I love my first two but I’ve alwa...

SDI PPA

Has anyone successfully gotten SDI extended for PPA AFTER they already switched to PFL? I messed up and should have spoken with my dr previously and now I feel I lost my opportunity to get it extended. Any advice is appreciated ♥️

Any first time mamas torn between 1 and done or having a second baby?

Our little girl was unplanned but such a happy surprise. Now I’m starting to think we need to make a choice sooner rather than later on having another one. Anyone else in the same boat? Xx

How to convince my husband to have our second child now?

Our first is 21 months. We both want a second child (already have names picked out that he chose). Both ideally want 3 in total. Whenever I bring up a second child he keeps saying it's not the right time. I'm over 35 and it's just going to keep getting harder to conceive the longer we wait.

Hey! I'm 37, our first baby is 10 months, I would love a 2nd and worried about waiting too long. Did anyone start trying again after a year or less?

First and last baby for you?

Hey ladies, I had my first baby this year at 37yrs old and i definitely want to have another. How old were you all when you had your first and last? I want to be done by the time I’m 40 but that’s doesn’t give me a lot of time. Is there anyone that had a baby after 40? If so how are you finding life?
