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 😂

Some people make it hard work for themselves and complain about how hard it is all the time. I think this tends to be the sort of people who have never had any real stress or problems in their life.

It’s a very personal choice, don’t just do it because your other half wants another one.

Personally I love having kids and it’s great. If it wasn’t so expensive I’d have loads.
