I don't want to have another if I have to work, and we aren't quite in a place to do that, yet. Next year we are going to do some major financial renovations, so that we can make the final decision. But I also worry about the stress of having two and taking away the time from DS by adding another. I really really did not enjoy the newborn stage and am terrified to have to go through it again. I think my husband is close to ready, but I'm still not sold on having another at this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-youre-not-ttc-why-not/page/2#post-1992087 Fri, 19 Dec 2014 14:41:35 +0000 mediagirl 1992087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lawbee11: I have a 2.5 year old and babysat a 3 week old last night.
