Baby 3?
Hi! 👋
I’m looking for advice, or suggestions for anyone that’s been in a similar spot!
I have 2 beautiful girls. One is almost 4 and the other will be 1 shortly. I had trouble conceiving with both kids. My 4 year old took us almost a year and my second daughter about 9 months. We almost did the infertility route, but likely I was able to get pregnant naturally. Back then, my hormones were tested and my AMH was on the low end of normal, I believe it was 1.01. My husbands sperm test was great, but his morphology was low.
After I’ve had my second daughter. Both my husband and I have talked about having a third, and how we can see ourselves not being done. It seems like things are getting easier with my almost 4 year old being independent and my 1 year old transitioning to no more formula, and daycare expenses easing up soon. We have been not using protection with the idea of if it happens it was meant to be, and clearly be happy about it.
However the idea of 3 does scare me but I’m also okay with it if it makes sense? I really could love another baby, and I feel in a way our family isn’t complete. However on the other end, I feel like if I close this door, I could eventually be okay with stopping. How do you make the decision? Is it normal to have all these back and forth feelings?
I’m 37, so time isn’t always on my side 🫠
