So we've been thinking of having a second baby, but that's all the extent we've done. Just thinking. You'd think that having the first baby would make us more comfortable with the thought of having a second one. But no we are not. Actually, just thinking about it makes my heart race not from excitement but from anxiety.
The irony of this all, we were more confident about ourselves in getting a dog than we were having a child. The decision to get a dog was a breeze. We didn't suffer any anxiety pangs or whatnot.
When we first found out about Rachel we had mini-meltdown. I think whenever the second one comes along we'll have a repeat of that meltdown. I'm not getting any younger so if we really want another child we'll have to do it sooner than later.
I guess we'll cross the bridge when we get there. For now, I'm okay with just the four (Monster included of course) of us.

Oh wow. I've been thinking about this as well. How do you think Rachel's going to react to a new baby?
was the mini meltdown a good mini meltdown? or a bad one?
(((hug)))
well, i can't relate sa post, hehe.
naku marj i'm thinking of the same thing lately. kaya lang i don't want to go through the same thing with the second pregnancy...hirap. kaya for now mackennzie is enough for me and of course the three babies.
LIV: I'm not sure how she'll react. She might think it's a toy. She's very nice around other kids and babies though so it might be okay. I hope it'll be okay. Seriously, this whole baby thing makes me nervous.
NOTSQUARE: I bawled my eyes out from fear when we first found out that you'd think I got knocked up before marraige. It really freaked me out so I'd say it wasn't a good meltdown. After that though I felt better.
NETTE: I can understand your hesitations. My God, di biro ang pinagdaanan mo. I don't know if I can be that strong.
hi marj,
i haven't blogged or visited any blogs in a while. i just realized you are back in the states, na. anyway, v and i have been thinking about baby#2. i don't feel ready yet, but because of my age, we have to act sooner than later.
good luck
