If you could, would you decide on a 3rd child?

\"If you could, would you decide on a 3rd child?\"


:idea: Errrr..... i honestly didn't know i still could... so i didn't decide on
my #3... Apparently, it was already decided for me. . :idea:

Yes true.... I wonder how many got their 3rd child without intentionally planning for it. :?

For us, the 3rd child came unexpectedly. I didn't even realise I was pregnant until I sort of realised that my period is late. We took precaution :? Sue the rubber maker as we are the 1%???

Anyway... she is a bundle of joy. Very different from her sibling. So maybe it's god's will for her to join the family.

Yeah, MMM... you're right! :lol:


Here's to God's will! :celebrate:

AND the mysterious ways he works around it! :celebrate:

I think much would depend on ur age. If say u already have 2 kids before u are 32, then u can try for a third one before u hit 35. For me I am too old liao, so factory closed…

Luanee,
i have my 2 kids before 32, but i am stopping cos i need to make contingency plan in case i get a 3rd one by accident.

Actually it may not be a case of age of not wanting anymore kids. Finances and the stress of education here are big factors. I had my son at 28 and daughter came when I was 32. Kids have a 4 year gap...when son goes to P5 next yr, we will have to coach him and daughter who will be in P1. Brain cells burnt and new ones not generated.

No thanks, even tho DS2 is asking for a didi AND meimei now, telling us he will take care of himself & them etc. :roll:


DS1 also doesn't want anymore even he was the 1 who had requested for DS2. :lol:

We are one of those too who dun intend to have a 3rd child, yet he choose to come....Of cos we are most to blame, fancy using SAFE DAYS, which we have been practising for 10 over years, instead of any othe precautions.....

I dun really can accept initially, but neither nor i could bring myself to juz \"kill\" him.... As he progresses each day, i learn to accept it. Especially the day i saw his heartbeat from the ultrasound and feeling him move :love: , i gets to love him more & more....Amnio test done, result out, everything is well, this shows he is fated to be our son.....

But i am really worrying the cost of bringing up another child... but yet need to face it.... 船到桥头自然直....

P/s: For those who are using the \"same method\" i used, and yet dun plan for a next child, pls change to a more reliable one...

NO THANKS...the stress of education and costs of bringing up kids is definitely too high.

Hi. For our case, it was by accident and not planned.Took us sometime to consider, and end of day, just go for it. Given the age gap between 3rd and first 2 is like 10 and 8 yrs apart, we are like going back in time, re-learn all abt diaper wrapping, baby bathe etc. Kind of chaotic at first, but now, getting close to a yr, things are falling into place. Still at times, it can be nightmare… So be prepared.


Personally, i can see it helped somewhat about grooming responsibility with DS1 to take care of baby brother, and in time to come, when both DS1 and DS2 go to sec sch, only the baby will follow us to places… The other 2 will graduate and have their own world and friends. There is no regret from us abt 3rd one, just be mentally prepared as 3rd one will be different, and u no longer have the luxury of one-on-one between parent and kids.

As the saying goes : each child is unqiue and different! For my 3 DS, i can’t agree more.
