Done having kids?

Question

I’m just curious. How do or how did you decide you were done having kids? I’m due with my third in Oct and I’m thinking it may be my last but just the thought makes me so sad. It means this is the last of lasts, last pregnancy, last first baby smiles, last birth, last first words, etc. my heart can’t handle thinking of it.

Answer

It's my first and the last baby no more again. Pragnancy is not easy at all and after so many years trying and 4 miscarriages. 😳🙄And am fine no need my husband's permission am done 🙌😂

Answer

I thought 4th would be my last and then I got that same feeling lol ended up canceling my tubal ligation and got an iud instead. Yep well ended up pregnant at 3 month pp and so on Monday I’ll have Irish twins lmao THIS TIME I am very much finished. My body has been through the ringer with the back to back pregnancies so I think that really pushed my decision lol.

Answer

I thought I'd have 3 kids, but felt the way youre describing and now I have 4 LOL! But after my 4th I was like, nope nope, not doing this again. Now I'm getting rid of the baby gear and it feels sad in a way, but when I think, do I want to go through this again, and it's a no. It just felt different than when I had my 3rd. Yes I was exhausted, but not "done".

Answer

We looked at our finances and how many rooms we have in our house and we are on our last because we can still have a comfortable lifestyle and maxed out our bedrooms so that everyone has their own room

Answer

We actually thought we would only have 1 for a long time. My son is 5 now and has ADHD so the toddler years were tough and we just felt like we couldn't devote enough time to him and baby however once we felt like we were in a good place with him we changed our minds. He was asking for a sibling and we always had planned on 2. This is our last one for sure.

Answer

I had my third 3 months ago. Getting pregnant involves a lot of testing for me and possible medical intervention/termination so that made my choice easier. But my oldest is also 9. I just turned 30. We’re ready to be done with that part of our lives. We’re just enjoying all these last firsts as they come!

Answer

I have had 3 csections so dr said it would be best because if I had anymore I would be high risk and I would have a lot of scar tissue so that would make it more complicated. I have a 10yr a 9yr old and a 5 week old and with her I developed chronic hypertension and had to have her at 38 weeks and to be honest i was in so much pain months before birth with her I decided to get a tubal during my csection and when I think about it. It makes me sad because I will never feel a baby moving inside of me again and like you said this baby is the last of the last’s but honestly with everything I went thru with my pregnancy with her (and there’s a lot of other things just to much to explain) it was probably the best decision I could have made. But that’s just the reasons why I decided. I would say for you to weigh your pros and cons and think about it long and hard like I did and you will decide the nest decision for you!

Answer

We decided on two. Im on my first pregnancy so im sure ill get these same feels!
