Do i or dont i have no. 3
Hi everyone
Just after a little advice really. Here goes my story I am 34 soon to be 35 and have 2 children already DD 9yrs and DS 10yrs, now over the past 3 years i have been on and off wanting another baby at one point was about to stary trying last year when my husband turned around and said no he really didnt want anymore so back on the pill i went.
Anyway this year about 5 months a go my husband changed his mind and said if i would like another then thats ok with him but i back then and untill now have said no i dont want anymore now and had changed my mind that was till very recently and am thinking maybe we should just go for it as im not getting any younger and i have always set myself an age limit really of 35 to be final. But i really dont know what to do will having another after so long and having such big age gaps with my first 2 spoil the life we have at present or im thinking if i dont have another will i live to regret it and always wonder what if.
Is there anyone else in the same position as me or what would you do if were you?

I know in my heart it is what I want but I don't really dare bring it up with DH yet as I've always been very sure I didn't want any more (had a bad pregnancy with DS) and I'm scared that now he doesn't either.
My practical side is telling me it's just not possible - no space in our 2 bedroom house, no "spare" money etc etc but my heart is screaming out for it
If I were in your position and both you and your DH would like to have another child, you have the space etc and it is practical for you then I think you should go for it - what "iwantanotherpls" said about regretting NOT having a baby when you wanted to has really struck a cord with me - I may use it in my "please can we have another baby" speech to DH when I pluck up the courage lol.
The age gap wouldn't really be a problem I don't think, the older children will be a great help. I know my DD would be "Mini Mummy", she's baby crazy
I hope you come to a decision soon
