I am the opposite. My DH would love more children. I am more than hesitant. We have a DD, 5.5 years and a DS 1yr. Our DD goes to private school which costs a fortune and our DS will also go to a private school from preschool. He is currently at a long daycare 3 days a week. Both DH and I work from home in our own businesses (separate to each other). We live in Sydney which is such an expensive city.
The reason I am hesitant is because of time constraints as well as financial. I started "EL" with my DD at 3 years and she is in the top 1/4 of her class. She has a lot of activities after school, swimming, piano, ballet, gymnastics, netball, financial literacy. (each activity represents one day of the week. We have Wed off). She finishes school at 2.30pm! She gets a lot of homework and is expected to do mathletics and reading eggs in her own time at home too, on top of her readers that can sometimes be 3 a day. So it doesn't give me much time to work on my business, which I need to, to help pay for all of this.
DS is with me 4 days a week and I am trying to implement EL with him. A subject I have become fascinated with since finding this forum.
I do all of the "teaching" with both kids, run the house, my business and try to be a good wife as well as occasionally doing something for myself.
Although I love kids, and have 7 siblings and loved nothing more than coming from a large family, I think adding another baby into the mix, would send me over the edge, with everything I have going on.
