This might be an interesting poll to take again after all our babies are here and the reality of a new family member hits but as of right now, how many kids are you wanting to have?

GTKY: How many kids? 76 votes
Special Snowflake and I will explain
Re: GTKY: How many kids?
When we did our first IVF/FET cycle we had 3 embryos that made it to blastocysts, we transferred 2 and got the twins. Since both took and we had an extra that was the same quality we always figured we would have 3 kids. Fast forward to May 2016 we transferred the 3rd embryo and it was unsuccessful and I was adjusting mentally to only having 2 kids.
Fate laughed as I was tagging kids stuff for a big buy and sell, and I felt the need to take a test which was positive.
Since I am "that" IF story, DH is getting a vasectomy in the fall.

BFP #2 2/25/16 EDD 11/5/16 MMC 4/15/16
BFP #3 8/31/16 EDD 5/12/17 It's a GIRL!
At first, my fiancé & I agreed we wanted three! Now he says two (boy & hopefully girl) and he said if we have another boy he's still done. It might take a lot of convincing or it might not, but I still want 3 babies.

First time mommy
90% of the way there
Now while staring down a likely c-section the idea of getting a tubal came up and I kind of want to wait a year or so until I am more certain. So who knows? I would say I am about 75% sure it will be vasectomy time after this second kid but 25% unsure because hormones.

@Louise_Belcher We waited a little longer between 2 and 3 for those exact reasons! DD1 will start full-day kinder in the fall and DD2 will be in part-time preschool. I'm really excited about the age gaps that we have. DD1 and DD2 are close and are at the perfect age where they can entertain eachother and like playing together!

I will say that some comments I've been getting irritate me because I have a DD and we're team blue this time around. I can't even tell you how many people have said things along the lines of "now that you have one of each, you can stop" or "you won't need to have any more kids because you'll have one of each." Umm... I would have been done if this one was a girl too and I would have been perfectly happy!! I don't think the sex of the children should determine how many makes a family complete.
