On this episode: Zak, Elizabeth and Lucy help a listener decide whether she’s done having kids. No pressure, right? 

But seriously: this listener has three little boys and is weighing the possibility of a fourth kid. There’s more love for her and her husband to give… but they’re also feeling burnt out. So how do you decide what to do? 

After that, of course, we’ll circle up for a round of triumphs and fails.
