Another Baby?

Lately the girls in Marisa's online baby group have been talking about going through labour again. I must admit this has caused all the voices in my head to hold meetings to discuss the possibilities.

Anyone who knows me knows that I still consider having another baby. Still, I know that right now isn't the 'right time'. You won't catch me saying we can't because I always tell my kids that we don't say the word "can't", and instead to ask "how can I" do it or to ask for help. And no, I'm not asking for help.

My Pregnancy Resume:

Marisa --- my awful 21 hours of labour, going 8cm and then having a c-section and still needing to go back to the ER because the incision reopened a couple weeks later.

Danielle --- we all know how much of a nightmare this entire pregnancy was and how the hospital was my second home and then all the physical (i.e. back) problems I've had since...

So would I chance my going through more physical pain, etc. and go through it all again?

Damn straight I would - I'm crazy, remember?!!

Still, so much to contemplate.

Regardless of what we do....I know I am so grateful and happy for my two girls and my absolutely amazing husband!!! I already feel like my life is complete. Another child, if this were to happen, would just be another blesssing!
