Anyone else pregnant with there last baby and really sad about it?

[meli1981]

im sad, but relieved at tge same time. im 32 and that may not be that old, but pregnany is hard for me and the older i get the harder it will be. three is a perfect number for us, we will have our two girls and a boy, so it seems our family is complete. i do get the pangs of sadness that im experiences things for the last time, but my patience really and anxiety cant handle more than three. i love my children and want to give them everything, and it would be hard to do with a large number.

This may be my last and I'll be honest, it does make me sad. I have an 11 year old DD from a previous marriage and this will be his first. We are both secretly hoping for a boy this time. He's already said that if this one is a girl, there may not be a third and he'd probably get a vasectomy If it's a boy, we might try again, because baby #3 would be the bonus surprise baby. I do want my little boy, but I'm not gonna lie, I'd love another little girl, too, and I know she'd have him wrapped around her little finger, lol. I'm 33 and I do worry about my age with a third baby, but I think I'm gonna try to convince him to let me just get another iud, regardless of what the baby is, just for a bit anyway.

DH is getting the snip tomorrow, I am very sad but I know I cannot put my body or my family through this again. I have been very very sick and I have very traumatic post births, PTSD, PND, it's not something I can do again. I would love to have had one girl in the bunch I think that may have helped but I adore my boys.

We've agreed in principle that this is our last baby, but both of us are loath to get anything permanent done. Hubby doesn't want the snip - he hates hospitals, operations and anything medical so it's highly unlikely he'd do that and to be honest, I'd probably not be comfortable asking him to do that. I had thought about getting 'fixed' as hubby puts it lol. I was all for it a few months ago, but now I'm leaning more towards a coil. I believe that they're 5 years, please correct me if I'm wrong, and there is a history of early menopause in my family starting 34-36 years. In 5 years time I'll be 35 so if by then we haven't decided to try again, then it'll be too late anyway lol

I would love to keep having babies...the babies themselves are amazing and I love being a Mum. But, the pregnancies are harder and getting harder as I get older and have more small children to round up lol. I think I'm happy with the 3, but I'm not going to lie, the urge to keep going is definitely there.
