Confused - need opinion on planning a 2nd baby Hi Mums, I am 29 and mum of a 3.5 year old baby girl. Currently i am housewife but wants to start my career soon for some financial issues, Currently life is going good, But there is one thing that keeps coming in my mind and not leaving me whether to have a 2nd baby or not with some reasons and am very confused whether my thoughts are correct or not. Why i want to have a 2nd baby: 1. It will give my daughter a company. 2. If i will have a boy that will be kind of security for us in our old time and i get very anxious when i think that my daughter will get married some day leaving us all alone and there will be no one with us. And if i will have girl then also we will accepts her just like we accept our daughter Reasons i don't want to have a 2nd baby: 1.As in todays world education and other expenses increasing day by day 2.Its very important for me at present to work because of financial situation and having a second baby will also stop my career for another 3 years. (As in 1st pregnancy i stop my career for 3.5 years) and that also it will get very difficult to manage 2 babies with a 10 hour job. 3.Then i thought currently when everything is going smooth i should give my best to my daughter only. Please moms what do you think on this as i don't what to regret myself after few years for not having a 2nd baby.
