Should we have a third baby?

Ann

My husband didn’t want more. I did. Now he says we can another and I’m not sure what I want. We both grew up with 2 siblings. Everything was always more difficult. Vacations especially. You always had to buy an extra ticket, extra room, someone always got left out on rides or had to ride by themselves. Sports. My husband grew up playing multiple sports and is afraid if our kids play sports, that we will miss games of one if there are multiple at the same time. Financially, we can’t afford it;but we didn’t think we could afford a second and here we are perfectly fine. He grew up with his dad working all the time and doesn’t want that for our kids, understandably. Odd man out. It always happens with 3 kids. One always gets left out of everything/forgotten. Housing. Our house now has 3 bedrooms. One for everyone. If we have a third, someone will have to share. We both grew up sharing our bedroom with our sibling. We don’t want that for our children, so we would have to move. Not immediately, but eventually; but this was never supposed to be our forever house anyway. Age gap. My 2 now, are 15 months apart. My youngest now is almost 18 months. If we have another,now, there will be 2.5 years in between them. But if we have one in a year, which is what we are discussing, there will be 3.5 years in between. Is that to big of a gap? Does it really matter? I know if we have another we wouldn’t regret it, but does anyone regret having another child? Anyone have any advice? How did you decide wether to have a 3rd or not?
