As a mom of two boys, the two questions I am asked the most
often are:
When are you going to have another baby?
or
Are you going to try for a girl?

The truth is…some days I want another baby, other days I
have more than I can handle with these two! My response:
“It depends who you ask.”
Hubby isn’t so ‘on-board’ with having another. With time,
money and the future pending, he is afraid to take on too much, and rightfully
so. I have been on the fence. I love my boys with
all my heart, but do occasionally wish I had a little girl of my own. Not to
model her after me -or some narcissistic reason like that - but more because
the relationship I have with my mother. It’s special. It’s something I can’t
imagine sharing with a boy. Who knows. I could be wrong. And I hope I am.
When struggling with whether or not I want another, and how I may feel if it would be another boy, I found
a great piece on it from scarymommy.com.
For the women who are sick of the usual milestone questions:
- When are you getting married?
- When are you going to have a baby?
- When are you going to have another baby?
Know that we are all right there with you. To those who pose
those questions…let’s back off a little ok? We’re busy living our lives here.
