Opinions about having another baby...?
Ok now I know that this is me and my husband own descision but I was looking for some advice. Me and Donnie have been together going on 7 years in August. We have a beautiful almost 5 year old daughter. Thing is, he was incarcerated from the time I was 4months pregnant. He will be coming home very soon (18mo. and counting!!) and my little girl has been asking for me to have another baby. Do you think that 7 years is too much of an age difference? Should she be an only child to catch up for all the missed time with Daddy? Me and him dont care either way, I just dont know.

My advise for you is to find out who Donnie is again, 8 years incarcerated is a long time and people change over long periods of time. You don't want to have a baby with someone so quick who is just getting back home after 8 years.

7 years apart is the equivalent of 2 only children. However, if your daughter is responsible, she may be a big help with a new baby. The real key here is if you think your husband will stay out of trouble and be home to raise this baby with you. Otherwise, what is the point of trying to share this experience?

As you already said that is a personal descision. However, no, I don't think it is too long. My brother and I are 5 years apart. However, I do think that you guys should have time alone as a family.He very well could have changed being in prison for so long.

7 years is not a big age differences
me and my brother are 14 mounts apart and when my mom get pregnant again, i was 13 going on 14 and my brother was 12 so if you want to have another child i say GO FOR IT :)
