I have 3 dc. Youngest has just gone to school. They are all two years apart.
Despite feeling more and more like life is physically easier I would say my emotional state has become flatter and flatter. To the point where now that youngest has gone to school I feel almost depressed.
I have considered going back to work but I have had a 6 year career break and this makes me feel quite nervous. Also we have no family support for duting holidays/when kids are ill etc.
My dc are all dedperate for another baby esp my middle child dd1(6). I know this isn't a reason to have another baby but I wonder if my flat mood is perhaps a feeling of redundancy.
Is this a common thing that will pass? Anyone experienced similar?
Thanks for reading.

is this just 'empty nest' rather than true broodiness?
