a friend of a friend accidentally got pregnant with their #3. they were happy with 2 kids but then had a weekend away from the kids, perhaps too much vodka, and then voilĂ !
note to self: NEVER get drunk while not on birth control. EVER.
so this story got me thinking-- i know there's no "right" time to have a baby but when is it a good time to have baby #2? just so you know, i am not pregnant nor am i planning to get pregnant or drunk any time soon. :)
my sister was born when i was 10, so i always envied friends who had brothers and sisters around their age. it seemed like so much fun! now that i'm a parent, i would like miles to have a sibling or two (maybe) somewhat close in age, but i am sooo not ready to go through the sleepless nights again. pregnancy wasn't too bad, but i just don't have it in me yet to deal with labor and the first few newborn weeks. i feel like i'm now JUST getting my life back, really enjoying miles and getting to understand his personality.
how did you decide to have #2, #3, or more? did it just happen, or did you plan?
