I do all the time. I know this might sound horrible, but I have such a high chance of having twins again and while I love my girls, I just don't know. I would love to have ONE more though. I also think about one baby with a full pregnancy, I had my girls at 30 weeks and what it would be like to actually bring my baby home right away....idk!!!!!!
If we do, it won't be any time soon. I'm busy enough as it is. It won't be until I'm done with my degree for sure, but I'm about 90% sure that we're done.
MH and I talked about this recently and we both would like to have another baby. (I really hate to say "baby" because if we end up with twins again, I would feel guilty about not "wanting" the second baby...)
I'm sure there will be many, many times after our girls get here that we laugh at the prospect of adding to our family. But for now, in our daydreams, we want to.

Fraternal girls born at 35+4. Slow down baby girls!!
We will probably have one more. Since ours are ID, it's highly unlikely that we'll have twins again. I really only wanted 3 kids, but I wanted them to be spaced apart. I feel a little cheated with the twins. Meaning, I thought I would get the chance to have another pregnancy, more years of preschool, etc. and I feel like it will be over too quick. I enjoy all the stages of childhood and I would like to go through those stages once more (minus the bad parts)!
That being said, it won't be until the twins are 4 or so. I guess we have to try for that boy...
I'm 100% done. I only ever wanted two children, and I happened to luck out and get two great ones.
Ditto this.

If I was younger I totally would. Being a mom is even more wonderful than I thought and I was made for this. I just wish I was 15 years younger.

Yes! We are waiting until my DDs are 5 years old, so if there are any complications or another long hospital stay, they are a bit more independent. I am nervous about having another set of twins, though!

We're pretty sure that we're done but haven't done anything permanent yet. I couldn't shut that door just yet. I used to say I wanted 3 or 4 kids then changed to 2 or 3. The twins got me 2 & 3 at the same time. Like a pp said, I feel like I got cheated out of a pregnancy, but I wouldn't trade these two cuties for anything. I have the Mirena IUD and if we haven't decided to have another by the time I'm supposed to get it replaced then my husband will get a vasectomy.I should add that my twins were spontaneous and at the NT scan we were told that we almost had a third egg release so I worry about ending up with multiples again.

I'm like 99% sure were done. DH is 150% sure! I might consider wanting a 3rd when the girls are in school (so not for a long time!), but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it. I'd also wouldn't go through IF treatments again so if I couldn't conceive naturally that would be that.
After 2 years, Injects, PCOS diagnosis and 2 IUI's, we were blessed with our beautiful twin girls! Baby Girl #3!
I thought about it for a while and then decided that we were done (DH had always said that he was done). Surprise, surprise, not only did we find out that we're pregnant, but it's a second set of twins. So for those of worried about the chance of twins again, here I am as proof that it does happen....
I actually have 4 older kids and I am pregnant with twins now! The twins were not planned but I know after how difficult this pregnancy has been I never want to be pregnant again!
My 1st set are identical, so we thought we would try for one more (dr said chances of twins again is very slim) when the girls were at least 2-3 years old.....we got pregnant again when the girls were only 16 months old. We ended up having another set of identical twin girls.....we were done!!!!!! 4 kids under the age of 3 was very active!
After divorce and being with my current husband for 7 years we took the chance and we are having one. No twins. We were afraid I would have twins again and actually were prepared to hear that we were having twins, we were super thrilled to have just one more. After 5 kids are family is complete and we are not having anymore.
Off and on. It started a little after they turned 1, then more as they were getting toward 2. I had it a lot this fall and even in bursts recently, but after this past week with two insane 3-year-olds, I really think I am DONE.
I like the idea of more kids but not so much of all we had to do to get pregnant. dh and i were just talking about this tonight actually. i wont say a hundred percent no to the idea of more ivf but i think it would be a better idea for us to adopt. we were talking about adopting a sibling group from russia before i got pg. i still feel really strongly about that, even more so now. kind of a thank you to god the universe whatever, for blessing us with these two.but i just need to get through these next couple years and def buy a bigger house before we r ready to commit to anything.

Absolutely. And if it weren't for not being able to sell our house and some life uncertainty (jobs, etc.) we would be trying for #3.

Thankful for every day
DH wants one more (boy), I want two more (preferably separately since the pregnancy was rough, lol.)
We won't TTC for awhile though. I finish my masters a year from May, so maybe around then.

Adding #3 shortly. We always knew we wanted more.
DH says he's done after this. I'm on the fence - I've always wanted 4-5. We'll see.

Me too. And Baby #3 won't be our last, definitely one more, not taking 2 more off the table.
