I am in a constant mental struggle with myself if I should have another baby or not! I already have a ds and graduated college last May with my bachelors degree. I have always wanted to continue my education while having a career and being a mother. I want it all lol. But I don't know if my wants are realistic. I'm only 24 and I don't want anymore kids past 30, and i would love to have at least 2 more children. But with that being said, I also want my career and education, and mixing those two things with babies is so hard! I should know I hard my son during my first year of college. Now that I am done and he will be in school next year, I'd really love to go back to school and add on to my degree. But I also really want another baby, like yesterday lol. So, I don't know what to do! My son has autism and he is non verbal , which makes him low functioning. And I'm also scared of having another special needs baby. Not that I don't love my son, but it is very difficult/ rewarding to raise him. As of right now, I have had my iud removed in January and am just letting things take there course and what happens happens and we will adapt , like we did withy first pregnancy, but now im kind of second guessing my decision. Plus I refuse to be a full- time stay at home mom for forever . Something I am forced to do right now due to my sons high level of needs. And I'm really looking forward to getting back into career next year, ( right now working on -call a couple times a week to get me out of the house), but like I said, I equally want more kids as my I do my career, and know I will regret not having more kids someday . But , I will also regret not continuing my edcaution and career. I'm at a loss right now. Any advice would be so awesome! Or anyone in a similar situation?
