Hi there! My husband is 9 years older than me and we've been married for 11 years. Anyway, I have a great 3 year old, and I knew from the beginning I didn't want more kids. I have never had second thoughts about it either. Society can make you think you're a freak for not wanting more, but we know better, don't we? This community is very caring, welcome!
Hi! My husband and I have been married 18 years and have a 5 year old adopted daughter. We had wanted more children but just knowing how long we had waiting in getting her caused us to rethink our plans. In all honesty, I think we sometimes make ourselves feel very guilty about our decisions rather than blaming those around us who make uninformed/careless remarks...at least that's how my husband and I feel.
Nice to meet you both :) and thanks for your replies. I do agree with you a bit about feeling guilty - but then in the long run I look at the expense in raising children and to have to half that to accomodate for 2 children always made me wonder if it was a really a road i wanted to take.
