Not me, i'm already thinking about baby number 2 but it won't be for a while yet

I did say during labour that i was never doing it again

but as soon as i had her in my arms, i knew i'd do it all again!

For a while I didn't want any more, ever! Then I really wanted another, then I didn't lol. Now I really want another one but we are waiting until I have lost some weight so I have a healthy BMI next time round! I would just wait and see how you feel once your baby isn't really a baby any more, the first few months are such hard work. I do know what you mean though, I always wonder how Joseph would feel if I had another and whether I could love another baby as much as I love Joseph x

I wanted a few in quick succession, but since having Ezio I will wait at least 5 years - I want to devote myself completely to him.

I think when your LO is still a newborn its swings and roundabouts, either your dying to do it again, or the thought of doing it again seems hell

At first i knew i wanted another but said a good few years later at least, but now i keep getting broody and wanting another, its tough!!

i think its far too early to know, in the 6 years between jack and lana i have changed my mind a million times about wheteher or not we were having the 3rd, when i was preg i definately didnt want a 4th, but after she arrived i was all for it, now she is 6 weeks and i am back to no way never again lol
