A question that many will ask.
"When are you having a second one?"
Now that i have one.
My honest answer. I dont know if i am able to cope with a 2nd kid. Nellie is an easy baby since birth. She hardly fuss, she latched well, she eats well and she is generally a friendly baby.
However, as she grows, her activeness is keeping all my willingness to have a 2nd one at bay. I literally had to drop everything that i am doing jus to make sure she doesnt open up the drawer and ransack everything out.
Apart from that, i always have these thoughts.
The positive one is the world is so harsh, by having another child, believing that the child is here to change the world.
The negative thought is, knowing that the world is so harsh, why bring the child into this world and participate in the rat race.
I am not keen nor interested to fulfil what the government says. But there is also one nagging thought, if we really were to have just Nellie alone, next time she will have to face the world herself. Literally.
No one will be able to share the things that she goes through. And so on and so forth.
Sigh. I believe these are some nagging thoughts of many young couples weighing down their mind before planning to have a kid. Even a second one.
