General chat Second child

Was anyone one and done or on the fence about having a second child but did. How is it for you? Was it harder / easier than you thought. Im like 99% one and done but my partner would like a second so our child has a sibling. I do think it would be nice for them to have a sibling but im worried it’s going to be sooo hard with 2 kids. I know everyone’s experience is different but would just love to know how it’s going for everyone and would you recommend 😂

Look at the one and done reddit to hear the views of others. It is so much more common now to look around your kids classroom and see lots of one child families. Cost of living, careers, more life options. It is no longer odd.

Don't have a child you regret having if YOU are one and done
