I know how you feel. We're trying. One more time, for a few months. We missed last month, and this month, I just have all this hope and stress and fear and excitement built up...but it could be for nothing, after all.It could be that Bean is going to be "it" for us. And he is wonderful and perfect and I adore every grubby fingerprint on my wall, yet I still long for just one more time. One more baby. One. On that note, my co-worker across from me just told me she's pregnant the other day. Without really trying. I congratulated her warmly and went home to burst into hysterical tears. (((Hugs))) to you. <em>Coco's last blog post..<a href='http://cocokrispybeans.wordpress.com/2008/03/25/fallen/' rel="nofollow">Fallen</a></em> Oh, sweetie. I know how you feel.

I just want to be able to give my son a sibling, so I don't even want to think about being done for a long time. These little ones grow so fast, you can't help but miss the early stages and feeling them in your belly:) <em>Randi's last blog post..<a href='http://mymomentsastoldbyme.com/?p=485' rel="nofollow">I Feel Pretty…Oh So Pretty…</a></em> I can’t even imagine how I’ll feel when I get to the point where we’re done.

I'm so sorry for your loss, so happy for the two wonderful little men who keep you busy, and totally understand health reasons for not wanting more. Both my girls were preemies because of insanely high blood pressure and well, yeah, we decided it was best if I actually stayed alive to raise them, rather than risk a third pregnancy. Plus, I've got my hands full! I don't think I could handle any more anyway!! I think we have it the way it's supposed to be. And can I just say, you looked absolutely fabulous as a highly pregnant woman!! I looked like a bloated, flushed, slug. Oh wait, I WAS!!! <em>ValleyGirl's last blog post..<a href='http://swanvalleytammi.blogspot.com/2008/03/happy-resurrection-day.html' rel="nofollow">happy RESURRECTION day!!!</a></em> This was such an open, honest, soul-baring post.

I love the saying
Cooking and cleaning can wait ’til tomorrow,
For children grow up we learn to our sorrow,
So quiet down cobwebs, dust go to sleep,
I’m rocking my baby and babies don’t keep.

We plan to stop at 2 as well but have no "legitimate" reason like health. We just only want two kids and we are fine with that. Now that we are over half way through the preganancy of daughte r#2 it is odd to think this is the last time and to think that our family is complete. I do believe though that God is sovereign. I guess if we are meant to have 3 it will happen unplanned. <em>Christy's last blog post..<a href='http://adventuresofpipandsqueak.blogspot.com/2008/03/good-friday.html' rel="nofollow">Good Friday!</a></em> Sometimes I think we are made to feel guilty if we don’t want to bless the world with another of our offspring but really, having a family of two healthy children is quite an accomplishment, honor and a lot of work.

By the way, Audrey's husband comes from Pittsburgh... big giant crazy obsessed Steeler fans... which is kinda a problem since we are diehard Patriots fans here in New England! We'll just have to see which team Audrey's 3 boys (almost 4) choose! And which quarterback to emulate!!?? Actually, Audrey is is Pittsburgh right now for the Easter weekend.
