During my pregnancy, I often hesitated to fully embrace the idea of having a baby, fearing disappointment. It wasn’t until my final trimester that I felt hopeful and relaxed about becoming a mom. Since my son was born, my husband and I have enjoyed our life as a family of three, never considering expanding our family beyond our large puppy. Though I’m unsure if my miscarriage influenced my decision not to have another child, I have no regrets about having only one. Being a mother to a 7-year-old feels perfect for me. Overall, having one child has allowed us to enjoy more travel, personal time, and playful moments together.
