I'm curretly 21 weeks pregnant with our second child and I always said that 2 was enough and hubby agreed, but now he has got his heart set on having at least another one. It's not that he wants a girl, he just wants a bigger family. I'm concerned with how much money 3 kids will cost, as to me (in theory) it means having a bigger house, bigger car, more money for clothes and activity clubs etc but his thinking is he doesn't want to make the decision based on money as we never know what is around the corner.
Now i'm all confused. If money was no object then I would love a big family, but I can't help thinking that one of us needs to be realistic. I don't want a big gap between my children (personal preference) as there is a large one between my sister and I and it was like being an only child and I was very lonely growing up.
Anyone else in a situation like this? Is having 3 kids that different to having 2? Do you just cope?
