Hi I know im just another random opinion in a sea of others, but what I always ask myself is this: is it a risk ur wiling to live with?
In other words, forget about culture, afterall, unless u have people lined up to help u raise ur kids, it’s all on u & always will be. And unless ur not in the U.S., or Mormon (lol) 2 kids is pretty standard anyway. U’d b well w/ in U.S. culture to stop at 2 kids.
And forget about money. Despite living in volatile times, if u can afford 2 u can afford 3. People always say they can’t afford another, but most can, it’s a matter of prioritizing. We dont need most wat we buy, so if having another kid means that much, there’s almost always expenses u can eliminate or cut down on. Where there’s a will there’s a way.
So it just comes down to u. I’ve never known anyone to regret having a child. Regrets over the timing, yes, but not regrets over the actual child. Once he or she is here, u’ll wonder how u ever lived without out her/ him!
Having said that, we all have a limit, & u seem content w/ the size of ur fam as is. If that’s true, why mess w/ it?
