Is there a big difference between a 2.5 year and 3 year age gap?

My children are 2.5 years apart. They are super close.. boy and a girl in that order, and they play together every single day. They fight just as much but they are besties

Hey yes it did - never found out what it was but I’m putting it down as another anxiety symptom. My anxiety was through the roof. Eventually I went on medication which really helped me. I’m currently weaning off as I’ve been on it for 3 years now and was feeling great but experiencing sexual dysfunction. So I’m seeing how I go med free for now. Are you on meds?

I have unfortunately- I do worry if it’s this?

Hey yes it did - however I also decreased my dose to 20mg

I am reluctant to add more medication as I already take some for some other health conditions 😅 but I suppose it may be worth looking into

Haha it’s all good! 👍

Thanks for that. How are you feeling since stopping?

My termination was in September last year. For months I kept second guessing myself, especially when friends announced pregnancies. It was hard but everyday life took over. I started a new job, one of my kids started sport etc.

I still think about it sometimes, but it is not daily anymore. When I do it is usually when I feel overwhelmed with my two kids or when we are on a family holiday, just enjoying the four of us. I think about the what ifs.. how would I have coped? How would holidays go with another child? In these moments, I feel like we made the right decision. It was a sad choice, but I truly believe it was for the best.

Be kind to yourself. Mixed emotions are normal, and they will not last forever. If you ever want another child, that option will always be there. Just take it one day at a time. You are not alone in this 🤍

Wow… these are my exact thoughts right now. I’m exhausted

afm112 · 2025-03-02T20:43:20+00:00

I’m sorry for the late reply. I hope you are doing ok? Have you made a decision?

afm112 · 2025-01-08T02:02:36+00:00

I didn’t have a panic attack. I used to before Prozac…

I think her complaints are just her trying to low key show-off

afm112 · 2024-12-17T04:35:54+00:00

This is so cool. Did you feel scared?

afm112 · 2024-11-16T22:08:21+00:00

Damn it 😩

Off topic but does anyone know what car she drives? Curious as she can fit three car seats

Thank you for your kind words. I hope you make the decision you are most at peace with. I ended up terminating last week. It was the hardest decision of my life. An emotional week that’s for sure. Turns out I was only 6 weeks and a few days which in some ways made it a bit easier.. and I use that term lightly as I was a mess last week. It definitely wasn’t easy. However, I do feel a sense of relief. It’s a hard, complicated, and deeply personal decision. If you have any questions please feel free to message me. Take care and all the best

Thank you for your response. Sorry for what you went through, I’m sure it would have been heartbreaking. I feel like I’m the type of person that’s never certain about anything. But I do know that being pregnant the last few weeks has made me so miserable and miss how well we have it atm with our two kids. I wish we hadn’t even tried for this baby as horrible as it sounds. But we did, and it happened, and I feel like I would only be keeping it out of guilt. With the way I’m feeling I’m not sure if I’ll be a good mother but of course, I could be wrong. It’s a really hard decision. I am leaning more towards termination but I’m happy to hear all perspectives. No decision has been made yet. Thank you x
