Only child

So, I never loved being pregnant. I don’t like the feeling of something wiggling inside me. Now DS is here and he is a month old, I am super worn out. It is hard to get sleep and a newborn is a lot of work. Don’t get me wrong, I love him and love cuddling him.

However, this makes me confirm that I do NOT want another. Everyone tells me I will change my mind. However, I can always adopt. People tell me it won’t be fair to DS to be an only child. I think it would be worse to go through another pregnancy and newborn phase when I don’t want to do so. I am impressed by women that have 3+ kids. I would much rather have one and my career.

This is probably selfish but, then again, most of us are selfish one way or another.
