Why Asking About a Second Child Can Hurt More Than You Know

I wish people would stop asking parents of one child when they’re planning to have another. Every time someone asks me, it feels like they’re questioning my choices or assuming something is missing from our family. The truth is, you never know what someone is going through—maybe they’re struggling with infertility, maybe they’ve decided their family is complete, or maybe they’re just not ready. For us, our journey to parenthood was not easy, and the pressure to expand our family can be overwhelming. Let’s remember to respect each family’s unique story and offer support instead of unsolicited questions. Have you ever felt pressured by questions about your family size?
