Question

Adding another baby - when is right? !

Hello!
So my husband and I decided we are ready to start trying to have another baby. It took us over a year to get pregnant with our 2.5 year old little man. We both want a big family and wanted to start trying when he was around 2 in case it took us another year...
sometimes though I feel so guilty.. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY!!! he is such my little buddy and my evening/getting ready for bed cuddle bug! I just image adding another baby and him between us and it makes me sad... I KNOW I SOUND CRAZY lol... fully aware. I have just been a stay at home mom his whole life - he just started going to school a few times a week and absolutely loves it so I know he will love having a brother/sister but its weird thinking he wont be my little baby anymore, but instead my big boy... lol
did anyone else feel this way??

Very much so!! We decided to TTC when our first boy turned 1, well we found out we were pregnant ON my sons first birthday. At first I was so excited and couldn't wait for him to be a big brother and then, guilt came in especially when the doctors put me on bed rest and I wasn't able to do as much with and for him. He got super attached to his daddy at that point which I was grateful for but I missed all my cuddles. Fast forward, he now absolutely adores his brothers (I had twins) and I wouldn't have had it any other way. They are all very close and love playing together, and I still have my individual time with all three of them.
