I've found myself thinking about Baby #3, after being completely against it since #2's birth. My husband wants a 3rd, but we haven't discussed it too seriously yet.

DS is 3.5 year old and DD is 15 months old. I'm 36. My husband and I have very busy careers (I'm a doctor and DH is a tenure-track professor who travels often). I've pulled back to part-time, which has helped a lot. But, I definitely still work more than 40 hours week with weekend call and life is still a little crazy. DH's parents live a flight away; my parents help a lot, but they live 2.5 hours away by car and are in their 70s. We have no other family nearby.

Anyway, I realize no one can answer this for me, but I just wanted to hear some perspectives from women who were unsure, but decided to go for #3. Sometimes life is so crazy, I think it would be way too much for me to have 3 young kids. But, then I think I'm being short-sighted and the kids are young for a relatively short period of time. And, they don't have much family (they only have 2 cousins), so I think about my kids having relatives when they are adults.

Anyway, sorry this is such an epic post. Thanks for reading.
