I go through phases... maybe just wait it out.
Lucky I don't have the option... allows me to come to my senses

I so desperate want another baby RIGHT NOW! LOL! But I'm also scared that if my man does give in that after #3 I will want #4,#5,#6.....etc.....I come from a big family & I remember how fun it was but I remember how crazy everyone thought my mum was too!

Oh it probably doesn't help me that both of my boys have been super Angels that sleep & have few problems....My mum thinks it's highly unfair! I almost don't want to jinx it for myself but I don't fel like our family is anywhere near complete! I had a dream that I had 4 boys & then twin girls & it just felt so right. Eeeek!

haha! i had emma (my second) when i was 22 and i also said that i wasnt having anymore, hehe ive just turned 25 and have had another
22 is still really young... yip, you have definatly got a few years left to have another 5 or so hehe.
your man might change his mind? i had the opposite, my hubby wanted more when i didnt. he loves kids. i think if we could he would want to have a few more yet.

Hormones are amazing things. We'd pretty much decided that 2 was enough but right after the birth of #2 I just had these amazing urges to do it all again..not straight away but in a year or so's time. DH is NO and I am 50/50 but I find this debate a hard one to resolve if we can't agree.

As stressed out as I have been with 2 sick kiddies this week and preg with #3, I still want more too... fortunately for me DH is happy to have a few more. Now if only my energy level would stay on par with my desire for more...
I was wondering if helping out at a playcentre or something like that (probably where your own kids go?) might help keep you busy and "nurturing" other little kiddies... but then after thinking about that a bit I guess it might be more frustrating 
The only other thing I can think of is asking DH why no? Is he worried about finances or time pressure or wants you to go back to work.... if they are things that can be worked through, you may be able to have another one after all.
I don't think most women keep on wanting more children after 5, 6, 7... lol... I know a couple of women with that many who "just knew" when they had had enough. And Toni, I'm almost 24 and the eldest of 10 kids  so I know how you feel. DH tried to tell me (when we were newly marrieds) that 4 is a "big" family - I couldn't believe it!!! LOL

Thanks busymum. At the moment I have a pretty busy life. I'm milking cows in the mornings, doing the playcentre thing, plus studying for my Agribusiness diploma & I'm babysitting another toddler every afternoon 6 days a week so I don't know if I could fit in anymore at playcentre and I have found it really hard with seeing so many kids & new babies. I desperately want another, my man has said no & when I asked he said he just feels that our family is happy & whole with just the two.
The timing isn't right anyway plus I would really like to get married at some stage. I didn't want to get married while pregnant but I'm even thinking that now I wouldn't really mind that too much LOL!
So what do I do? I don't want to be a nag & my man seems to think that I will get over it but the thought of having no more upsets me to the point that I bawl my eyes out

Are you sure you're not already?! lol Toni I rememberwhen you were preggy with Blaire and you wrote a list of why you weren't having any more!! Maybe you could fish that out? Sorry, no good ideas but maybe it will pass with a bit of time...

Hehe, a few weeks ago I swore that I was never, ever being pregnant again, but before I had even left Birthcare when the babies were 4 days old I knew that I would do it again at some stage. Not for a good while yet mind you, but we will have at least one more. Still working on Willie, but give me time.

Emma! lol I must be different cos I am quite happy with one. I always wated three or four kids but at the moment we are happy as we are. Me and Daniel were talking about it today and aren't too fussed on more. I guess we will see how we go, I figure we will know if/when we want more.
