Am I being selfish?

Question

I have a 19,17,14 y/o and I got remarried in 2015 and have a 9y/o step son. I just turned 40 and want 1 more. Is this selfish of me since I’m older now and have 4 children already?

Answer

Not really selfish, but I wouldn’t personally. Your oldest is old enough to have kids. You need to make sure it’s really what you and your husband want. Do you want to be raising kids up until you’re able to retire? Will you be able to afford to retire if you have another?  Questions like that are very important to make sure you know.

Answer

I have an 18 year old and currently pregnant. It isn’t selfish although I don’t know how I would pay pay tuition for two and still have a baby lol.

Answer

Unless you’re unable to care for another child it isn’t selfish at all!

Answer

No. I'm 38 (husband 42) and just had my 4th. My best friend is 39 (her husband is 46) and just had her 1st. No issues. If you're healthy and able to give your baby a stable and loving home, and you're up for the sleep deprivation etc again, go for it.

Answer

It’s not selfish but I would make sure this is what you’re really wanting.

Answer

No. If that’s what you and your husband want there’s nothing wrong with that. My mom had my half brother at 41. We are 22 years apart lol
