I’m pretty sure I only want two children, and I think that’s what we can realistically handle while still giving them—and ourselves—a good life.
However, I’ve always had this fear of losing a child, and then my remaining child would be left alone. I know that would be deeply tragic no matter how many children you have.

Has anyone else ever felt this way?

I really wish I could let go of this thought and tell myself that it’s not going to happen. I think this fear comes from the fact that two kids deaths at my elementary school when I was growing up. 💔
