Hello momMDS
I know that by saying this most of you could hate me. So here it goes: I want to be a doctor, and I never wanted to have kids. But, I had a baby a few years ago. BIG SURPRISE!
It was an amazing and beautiful experience, but i got all the pregnancy symptoms, yeah all! and that Re-assured me that I do not want to do this again.
I just never imagined myself raising children, now I have one and I enjoy raising my kid. But i also know that's not somenthing I want to do again. Hope someone gets that it's not that i don't love being a mom.
Am I being to selfish with my husband and kid? My husband wants more kids and my kid is lonely as only child . But, I can barely work and study while being a mom and I can't imagine having more kids and struggling with med.ical school or asking people when is the best time to have another one, when I just want to have a medical career since i was 4!
So i feel guilty, but i think one is enough (good for me) but not for them.
When one child makes you feel complete, then why bothering to have more?

One is enough for me, too. I'm sure my husband and my child would like me to drop everything and have another baby, but it is just not going to happen.

Your feelings and your goals count as much as those of your other family members. The burden of having another baby will fall most heavily on you (your body x 9 months, breastfeeding, expectations of what mothers should do, etc.) and it is your right to say no. Maybe you can find some friends for your child so that he/she is not lonely.
