Comments on: When’s the Next One? http://www.kidsinvictoria.com/blog/2010/02/whens-the-next-one/ Soon to be home of local mommy bloggers!

Seriously people, I had 3 kids in 3.5 year & I'm pushing 40! I'm not sure why people ask these questions, but I just try to roll with it with a sense of humor. I guess whether you have 1 or 7 or anything in between people will always feel entitled, for some strange reason, to ask when the next one is coming.

People do not get it. There is a lot of romanticism about the natural-ness of conception, birth, etc., especially on this island, which is lovely if it happens for you. You are no less of a woman if you have a medicated Csection and no less of a family if you cannot conceive or carry or choose not to have children or have a singleton or adopt or live any other option or combination. More people need to understand that we don`t all choose and or succeed in the 2.2 children. And can be and are happy not doing so! It gets my back up a little as well if that is not obvious. . .
