As I was thinking about it, while changing the laundry over and folding clothes, I thought, I don't know if I want a second baby, I want another first baby. Does that even make sense? I'm ready to have another one, but I'm just not sure if I'm ready to have TWO right now. I want to have a first baby all over again, just with all the knowledge and experience that I have now. Don't get me wrong, I have absolutely NO complaints about Colt. I had a great pregnancy (minus the nose swelling and major break-outs), and he was literally almost the perfect baby (knocking on wood right now). I just want to experience it all again...the excitement, fears, everything...like it was the first time!!
The problem with all of this is the fact that I wouldn't trade or give up my little man for the world, so the whole first baby thing is already spoken for.
I guess this means we'll just wait a while before embarking on the baby experience again. :)
It makes perfect sense!
ReplyDeleteWait 10 years to have your 2nd one! I promise it is exactly what you are looking for! :) The feeling of having your first one only with the knowledge you have now. Ha ha.
(Except Little Man won't have a playmate and someone to share a lifetime of memories with. That is something I wish more than anything I could have changed.)...So have 2 now and then wait 10 years to have a 3rd. Mwah ha ha.
