#2 : by jean

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?
