I think there might be something wrong with me. I don't think this is normal but these are feelings that are real and a little crazy or strange and lucky for me I can write about them here.
I have 3 boys. That is not my problem. The oldest two are about 17 months apart and the difference between #2 and #3 is 19 months. This is the first time I have made it to a first birthday (of one of my sons) without being pregnant.
Today I had some time to organize their clothes as they are growing and some of the clothes are now too little. I was putting away 12 month clothes and filling the drawers with 18 month clothes. I took 18 month and 2T clothes out of #2's drawer and put those in #3's drawer. This made me sad. It makes me want another baby and this is why I think I have a problem.
Is this normal? Well, I know I want more kids but is it normal to have these feelings. Are other moms happy to be done with a stage? It was so sad to me to see clothes that #2 was JUST wearing ready for #3 to fit into very soon. And what about all those baby clothes that #3 can't even squeeze into. I'm so glad I know I want more because I just don't know what I'm going to do when I have to put all these clothes in the donation pile.
Maybe I need some counseling but really I just need prayer if and when I am blessed with another baby.
