I just turned 40, and just survived a pregnancy scare--I mean I actually took TWO pregnancy tests! The experience actually has my husband and I thinking about having another baby.

I only have one child, and we're going to wait a bit longer to decide if we want another.  Personally I'm fine with just one, but I think my husband would really like another.  Who knows, I may change my mind in another year - I am much more likely to seriously consider having more children than I was a few months ago!

I already have 3 girls, but my eldest is already at the care of my sis-in-law who's not lucky enough to have a child of her own. My 2 girls on the other hand, are with me, but for now- they're at my mom-in-law. Anyways, I do want to have more babies, especially a boy next. With God's blessing, I do want to have at least 2 more, a baby boy and another girl.

I got 1 daugther, i hope 2 more,

If God wills.

Yeesh! Heaven's no! 14 pregnancies is enough for me!

Hi everyone,

I'm Ranee, mom to two miracles, and new to the forums. I'll probably hang out more on the parenting boards when I'm not blogging, but I'm reading through everything right  now to get to know everyone.

I was a member of a pregnancy forum on another server during my very high-risk pregnancy with my youngest son--and I have to tell you, I really think it saved my sanity. Although my son is now nearly 7, I am still in touch with many of the amazing ladies I met during that time. We've watched each other's babies grow, shared the hard times and the joys, cried, griped, whined, worried and laughed so many times I almost wore out the L and O keys on my keyboard! We consider ourselves "aunties" to all the babies and it's a miracle to watch them grow up. These are relationships I believe can last a lifetime--and the funny part is, few of us have ever even met offline.

If you're expecting, TTC or a new parent, or trying to overcome the pain of a loss, don't pass up this chance to meet other women going through exactly what you are right now. Joy shared is joy doubled. Pain shared is pain halved. 

So hi AND welcome! I'll blow some baby dust your direction! (You can always jump out of the way if you don't want any.)

Blessings,

Ranee

I have one daughter and am expecting my second child late march/early april. I think this will be our last one, my husband is perfectly happy with 2. I originally wanted 3, but am now considering just having the two. We'll see

I have two little boys. Most of the time I really hope to have one more (maybe a girl?). But I am not getting any younger and things are a bit complicated and I am not sure whether it will happen. Also, as the boys are getting older lots of things are becoming easier (travelling etc.). Having a new baby would of course change everything. I guess I am really torn between really wanting one more and realizing how difficult it would be. We'll see.

I have one so far.  A one year old boy.  And I feel like Susiecat, now that he's getttin a little older and I'm starting to get back into a rythm I'm not sure if I ever want to break the cycle again.  I never really got into the idea of having kids before my husband and I found ourselves pregnant.  I know I would never change what I have now but I haven't been able to decide if I'd do it again.  My husband is great and doesn't try to pressure me, but I can tell he'd be happy with another one (maybe even a couple more :-)  I also think sometimes that it would be worth having another baby just to use all the stuff we bought one more time .  Oh well, I'm only 27 years young so I'll see how things play out in the next few years.

You know, I felt the same way when my daughter turned one...but I was already pregnant (doh!). I wanted them close so that I could get through the baby stage all at once, because it really is hard.

BadJax-n-me,

lucky you for still being young enough to take your time to decide. I really do feel pressure as I would love to have a third, just maybe not right now. Unfortunately, I do not have the luxury to wait

I know what you mean Jax!  We have  apretty busy life and travel frequently, and I just can't imagine adding another little one to the mix.  We decided that we were going to  make a decision one way or the other by the time our first turns two.  

On the one hand, I think it's great to have a sibling around.  On the other, I don't want a situation like my brother had -- he was younger than me and I really excelled.  I think it was hard on him growing up.  Also, we were eight years apart, so we really weren't that close until we were older.  

I'm pregnant with #1!! [don't get the wrong impression, though, lol. we're only going for two!]

Going into week 25. Oh how I wish the day would come sooner!

im pregnant with my frist and it is a high-risk, so far i dont think physically i could have another baby, but if the doctors gives the ok, then i will try in a couple of years, i dont think i could handle two in diapers at once! I'm 27 weeks and little miss Emmalee Rose needs to hurry up (ive never been one to have a lot of patience when its is something i really want)

i am pregnant with number one and I think this will be my only one. I am 32 and before I got pregnant I had not even really decided if I wanted children or not. I would not change a thing now but I think I am going to be good with one :)
