Leave the hospital talking about the next one .....

We had said we were done .... well done being pregant, we have always said we'd adopt after this ....... we know our family is not done ........

but we are litteraly still at the hosptial and Scott is wroking on the dates for us to TTC again " well if we are going to do this again, we should not wait as long this time as we did last time" (we waited "a long time" the boys are 23 months apart) "maybe next year we should be thinking of an other birth"

driving home, 45 minute drive, that is what we talkeds abourt -- if we should TTC again, getting 3rd boy vs a girl, when to TTC, ..... if we do TTC again the next two will be closer together than these two .. so like 3 under 4 : ....................

We are elated to have Chalres, a best freind for Theo and another hunting buddy for Scott ... but we do both 1. know our family is not done and 2 want a girl at some point too ............

------------------------- Scott's main concern has always been his age - 41 now -- and mine to a lessor extent -- 35 now ------------------------

: : :

Scott really wants a girl, i didn't realize. Course there is no promise if we get pregant again we'd get a girl, and since i doubt we will have more than 3 (or 4 if we'd adopt a sib set) .. not so sure i want to risk a 3rd boy pregancy in place of adopting a girl .. yk?????

but this birth was so much better -- I do think i could do it again (this birth, not Theo's birth) .............

I know we are nuts.

Can't even go there yet. I'm glad to hear your birth experience this time was much better though.

apperantly much better for SCOTT too -- I know the 33 hours and forcepts with Teho was hard on him as well as me, HE keeps talking about how much easier and faster and so on Charles' birth was

We did not have a middle name for Charles, sat at the hospital -- the three of us -- for 3+ hours just trying to get one so we could finish the paper work and go home I guess Scott THAT convinced he was a SHE.

I didn't realize how much scott wanted a daughter -- not that we don't love C -- but THAT is the reason Scott is talking #3.

I am so sure this will be a 4th boy and I am okay with that. Yet I find myself plotting and pouting because I SO want a girl in my life and I don't see how it's going to happen. The hubster is SO DONE. I want to adopt, but he's just DONE and with finances, space and other concerns, I should be done too!

I kinda know i won't ever be done -- or if i will, i am no where near there -- so DH is gonna have to be the one who is done and makes it so.... and since he is talking so NOT DONE ... well there is no reining me in

I hate that we started so late, we both do -- only baby 2 and i am 35, almost 36 and he is pushing 42........

I only got 3 hours sleep last night -- and not all at once -- and i can still say "yes our family needs to grow more" (but not right now )
