There are plenty of thorny topics in parenting. Topics you might think about all the time… even if you don’t feel comfortable talking about them with others.
For many people, trying for another kid falls into this category. (Of course, that doesn’t usually stop nosy people from asking!) Maybe you thought you were a “one and done” family, but you’re starting to change your mind. Maybe two kids are overwhelming enough, and you’re not sure anymore about going for a third. Maybe you’ve always wanted several kids, but are struggling with secondary infertility. And of course, maybe you’re simply not sure what to think at all.
Whether or not you’ve shared these thoughts with your family, friends — or even your partner — lots of you have shared them with the Scary Mommy confessional. Here are 25 confessions about having another kid.
