In order to prevent all these imaginary problems, I think I will rather savour,enjoy and treasure what I have now before thinking of adding to the family as its so much work! I always look in awe at how Meg can juggle OT,running a business,writing books,being a wife and mother! Maybe one day Ill be there too, but at the moment Im content with my 7 month old baby.

Well Big girl now at 4 years. I know what you mean about yearning for another baby. I know I have space in my life for 1 more and I still brood over other people's babies and tear up when I hold them. Given the near tragic events at both my children's births we have made the logical decision that we should not have any more children. For my safety and for the sake of the baby, it is just not worth the risk. Also, living abroad away from Family support is difficult so 2 children makes mores sense. The decision is logical... but the emotions are still strong. As Daniel gets older I keep thinking back to him as a new born and long to have that again. I wonder if the yearning will ever go away? Hi Meg

A very happy birthday to baby Emily. Well Big girl now at 4 years.

I know what you mean about yearning for another baby. I know I have space in my life for 1 more and I still brood over other people’s babies and tear up when I hold them.

Given the near tragic events at both my children’s births we have made the logical decision that we should not have any more children. For my safety and for the sake of the baby, it is just not worth the risk. Also, living abroad away from Family support is difficult so 2 children makes mores sense.

The decision is logical… but the emotions are still strong. As Daniel gets older I keep thinking back to him as a new born and long to have that again.

I wonder if the yearning will ever go away?
