Decisions Decisions (a mini post)

I thought I'd got away with it, but I haven't quite. It has started. People are now starting to ask whether we are planning on having any other children. I guess I've been lucky that it has only just started. BB is coming up to 16 months and I guess it is inevitable. And truthfully, we have started to talk about it. Talking about the fact that we're not sure whether we are ready to add another little one to the mix, just yet, if at all. We love BB so much and we really struggled with the first few weeks and months of parenthood - do we really want to go back there? Looking back at BB's baby photos I really find it hard to think back to those days. Motherhood just didn't feel all that natural at first, I was shattered all the time, Mr B and I argued a hell of a lot and it took a long time to recover from the birth physically and emotionally. Having thought about it more and more over the last few weeks, after Mr BB stated, quite seriously, that he really wasn't sure whether we would have another, I got to a point where I could just about  be OK with focusing just on BB. But at the same time, I can't quite get my head around the fact that BB could be an only child, like me. I always wanted more than one. But maybe waiting a bit longer to consider it seriously is the answer.
