Why one?

After a emergency c-section and health reasons. I am just too scared to have another baby. Hubby and I have agreed that we are blessed to have the one we have, and that if we're meant to have another one, it will happen!

Choice of both my husband and I.  He has a girl, 18, and a boy 17, from his first marriage, and he is becoming a GRANDFATHER - TONIGHT - by his 17 y.o. son, bless his little goth heart.  We are very content with our one little princess.  By tomorrow I'm going to be a step-grandma.  Oy vey.

for me its both personal choice and medical reasons. i didn't want more but DH did so i was willing to give him one more. BUT then came the health problems so that put a nix on any more kids!

Medical reasons have over shadowed my chance to choose.  I choose to stick around for my dd and therefore to do that means no other children.  I had always wanted lots of kids.  But I had thought i was meant to have 3 children and well, my dd had a twin that did not make it.  So i thought another baby was comming my way but dr told me it would be best for my lupus not to.  I am making my peace with the choice bieng taken from me though.  EVERYTHING happens for a reason and we are NOT in control sometimes!

A choice me and hubby decided on when we met, that we would want one child.  If we met sooner in life we probably would have had 2 kids.

Pregnancy is difficult and dangerous for me.  My first 2 pregnancies nearly killed me, and neither of my first 2 children survived.  My third pregnancy was very difficult, and I don't think I can handle the physical or emotional stress of another pregnancy.

My husband is 1 of 4 and didnt get the attention he wished he had  and I am an only so I had wanted more than 1  but my husband works 7 days a week most of the time and I dont think I can handle 2 kids .   Some people may say its selfish but Im being realistic.  Not just hard for 1 person, but also the money issue.  We are still paying hospital bills off from when my son was born 3 years ago,  I would rather have enough to have him have a nice life then have to scrimp just to have another kid
