How did you know when you were done having babies?

...See more I have an almost 1 year old little boy! Can’t believe it! He is such a blessing to my life and we couldn’t be more thankful for him in our lives. I’m just not sure if I want to have more children. We struggled to get pregnant with him and were super excited when he came along. I honestly thought I just wanted one before getting pregnant. A lot of people tell me “oh you will change your mind or you have to give him a sibling.”My question is how do you know when you’re done having kids? I had a very strong desire to have him. But I honestly don’t have a strong desire for a second baby. How do you know when your family is complete? Thanks for your time!

Tokophobia fear of pregnancy and childbirth

...See more My husband and I want a baby so bad. But every time we plan to try I panic. I’m afraid of the unknown and the idea of being in pain that is unbearable scares me to death. I had kidney stones last year and that was an extremely painful experience and if childbirth is like that I don’t want to experience it. It’s hard to want something so bad and feel so close to getting there and then the panic sets in. I have obsessed over this for years the constant racing thoughts of wanting a baby and the thoughts of how painful it will be. I’m at a loss and don’t know what to do anymore. I’m at my breaking point and almost ready to give up on my dream of having a family.

...See more Would someone be able to talk with me about my fears of pregnancy and childbirth? Any moms out there? My husband and I want a baby so bad but my anxiety keeps getting in the way. Why scares me the most is the unknown and the pain I could experience. I had kidney stones last year and that was very painful. I worry it could be like that or worse. This is really taking over my life and I wish I could hear some positive stories. All I’ve heard growing up were the horror stories. Any advice or guidance would be appreciated.
