I Had an Epiphany!!!!

We've going back and forth about having a fourth child. Our finances are great but we have two special needs kids (aspergers and dwarfism) and I've been terrified to commit.

Maybe it's the painkillers for my tooth but I'm laying here and it hits me. I NEED another baby. 4 is a great number right? Then I could go into the pregnancy knowing it was my last, unlike last time!

Omg, dh needs to wake up so I can tell him. He will be thrilled, this is what he wanted!

(Hopefully this is the right place to put this!)

As long as you're sure, tell him...but if you think you might change your mind then think about it for a week. Nothing hurt more than when DH had a change of heart and said "let's have another baby" excitedly, then took it back. (ofcourse you can see from my siggy he wasn't set on No or he would have been preventing lol!)

I also think 4 is a great number, and we are expecting our last and for the first time, it feels right to be the last...with #3, I was hoping DH would change his mind, but had accepted the fact we were done...but this time, I know, and it ok and I'm good with that...if that makes sense.

I have 5 and always wanted 5. It just feels right when you know you've had all the children that are supposed to be in your family. We almost stopped at 4, but it just felt like someone was missing, ya know?
