Ever find yourself pondering, ‘Am I really done having kids?’ Let’s unravel this soul-searching question together.
By Mama Disrupt®
Hey, queen! Every mama has her journey, and whether you’ve got one kiddo or five, there comes that inevitable question, “Am I really done having kids?” Now, there ain’t a one-size-fits-all answer here, but there are a few telltale signs.
“WHATEVER YOU DECIDE, IT’S THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.”
1. Gut Feelings Speak Volumes
You know that inner voice – the one that guides you when choosing those fierce heels or whispering sweet nothings to your mini-me? Listen to it. If your heart flutters at the thought of another baby or if it feels complete, it’s telling you something.
2. Visions of the Future
Imagine your fam in five or 10 years. Are there more kiddos around the dinner table? Or is it just the crew you’ve got now, vibing together? Your dreams and visions can reveal a lot.
3. The Bod Speaks
Girl, we’ve been through the rollercoaster of pregnancy and childbirth. How does your body feel about going through it again? Respect and honour what it’s telling you.
4. Cha-Ching Considerations
Look, babies are blessings, but they also cost a pretty penny. Can you handle the financial pressure? It’s not selfish – it’s real talk.
5. Squad Dynamics
Think about your current kiddos. Do you feel there’s someone missing? Or does the energy feel balanced as it is? Only you know what fits best with your crew’s rhythm.
6. Space & Time
Let’s keep it real: more babies mean less time for you, boo. And while they fill up your heart, they also fill up your house. Do you have the space, physically and emotionally?
7. Mama, Talk About It!
Whether it’s with your partner, your bestie, or even journaling – let those feelings out. Sometimes just speaking it out loud can make things clearer.
In the end, whether you’re adding more bambinos or focusing on the ones you’ve got, always remember you’re doing an AMAZING job. Whatever you decide, it’s the right choice for YOU and your family.
