Baby #4

No, this is not a BFP post. I know, darn it!!

I would be a liar if I said I didn't have thoughts of having one more baby. I always thought I would firmly be done at three- and if you were my sister you'd be yelling, "I told you, you'd want another one!!"

But I can't help but want a sister for Hazel- [yes I know we wouldn't be guaranteed a girl & I'd be just as happy for another boy]. My sisters have and always will be my very best friends and I honestly can't imagine Hazel not having the same. Sure she can be close with her brothers but I don't think that could ever replace the relationship that sisters share.

& just my luck- Ryan is firmly, I mean VERY firmly, done with three. About every couple weeks I so very nicely ask with batting eye lashes if we can PLEASE have just one more. & every couple weeks he says, "Hell no!" I will continue to ask every couple weeks until he does the snip-snip, which has been putting off so there is still a tiny bit of hope that I can change his mind. I think my chances are good now that all 3 kids are STTN ;)

Ok, I need to know your secret. I have two kids (boy - 22 months, and girl - 10 months) and I.am.losing.my.mind! I work full time (and I think you do too?) and so does my husband, and we just go non-stop! I will occasionally think I want another (hubby says no way!) then days like yesterday happen and I think there's no way! There has to be something I'm missing if YOU want another child - I can barely handle 2! (Granted my son has started the temper tantrums and my daughter is VERY clingy). I just sometimes think I'm missing a part of my brain that allows me to be able to handle some things! But kudos to you - you seem like you've figured it out! :)

welll my dear ...i know what you mean ...kind of ....my guy had 2 previous children. When we had our daughter ....he said he was DONE....then my son came...LOL.....he was supposedly REALLY DONE....now we are moving out of NJ to ATL .....and out of the blue he wants 1 or 2 more. I am overjoyed because i never had a sister and wanted my daughter to have one but my 2nd was a boy so I would love to try for another girl :) Hopefully you get a 2nd little girl too :)

We are expecting our third (a girl) and as DONE as I said I would be at 3, the thought crosses my mind once in awhile as well. I wish there was a way to guarantee another girl then I'd be on board for sure as my two best friends are my sisters as well.

I feel the exact same way. I have 3 boys (5, 2 1/2 & 7 months) and cannot stop thinking about another baby. I must be crazy, but children are such a blessing and I know I would never regret adding to our family. Like you, my hubby isn't as enthusiastic but since drastic measures haven 't been taken to prevent another baby, my fingers are crossed!

Oh my goodness I thought you were going to announce another pregnancy!!! Keep begging. Ryan will cave eventually ;)
