Another kid?

Does anyone else have another or considering another kiddo? We’re starting to think about it but I would most likely have to stay at home and not work because child care is so much. So, I’d be at home with our 3.5 year old and a newborn, is this a terrible idea?

We found out right before her 1st birthday that I was pregnant again, and I had her sister in April. She's been the best big sister ever. There are times that she gets jealous, and it is hard having 2 under 3 sometimes. I've been home with both of them since February, and some days are easier than others.

I'm one and done. It's not for everyone. You just have to consider what's best for you and your family.

We started trying when our son turned 1.5 and I'm 3 months along with our next right now. The goal was communicating with him about large subjects before a baby is introduced to the house and we feel like he's ready

@Claire, yes! I told my sister-in-law that sometimes I wish we had waited, but I definitely wouldn't trade my girls for anything. I also got my tubes tied after my 2nd, so we're done.

We are due mid December with our second. They will be almost 2.5 years apart.

Just had our second in September so they are 26 months apart. Older kiddo absolutely adores the baby though she hates sharing her parents at times.... many times... but we're all figuring it out one day at a time.

I just had my second. It's hard with this age gap, but I feel like it mat be easier with a 3yo.

I just had my second!!! So far it hasn't been too terrible, my toddler just kind of ignored her sister 😂

There was a poll several months ago and I think at least 30% said they had another kid. My second is 5 Months and I’m contemplating a third 😊 my toddler absolutely adores her baby brother and it’s the cutest.
