How many kids do you want to have?

laurenrobbie · December 2009

This is my first pregnancy but I'm thinking I want 2 or 3.

coshea1 · December 2009

I'm pretty sure that I never want to be pregnant again....and this is my first too

xtencornfield · December 2009

No more than two and we'll see how this one goes...

Rachelilly23 · December 2009

This is my first too- DH and I sort of decided on 3 and would re-evaluate the situation to decide if we want a 4th.

carasizemore · December 2009

2 or 3 as long as I get through this one! Yes

Sept1799 · December 2009

I am not having a good pregancy at all....very sick etc.... but its all worth it in the end...

I wanted a large family but now thinking 2-3 kids. 3 kids the max.

synchrosally · December 2009

I want 3, DH wants 2. He says "odd numbers create descent"

BarbieAP · December 2009

DH says he wants 2 but I am leaning more towards 1. We'll probably end up both switching after this little guy is born. haha

SoldiersGreenBean · December 2009

I wanted 2.

Surprise!

dixielane · December 2009

REALLY would love 4, would settle for 3. No less! Hopefully! But 4 would be perfect.

I've always thought 3; however, it's taken us over 3 years of trying with a couple losses and tons of $$$ to get to this point. I'd like to try for no. 2 soon after this one since I'm "older" to start with, but if it doesn't happen, I'm very blessed with this one.

Bailey_07 · December 2009

This will be it. We only want 2.

Let him know there is plenty of dissent between my sister and me, and there's only two of us!

jilicious · December 2009

We want three at least. You have to replace yourselves on this earth, with an extra one or two to create MORE of you!

Sept17.05Bride · December 2009

I am done after this one, we only want 2.

pocoabeja · December 2009

We've always said that we want 3 or 4. I'm pg with #3, a third boy. We'll see how it goes. I'm going to have 3 under 3 1/2 years old, so I think it we added a fourth, we'd wait until at least two are in school. But, then again..it would totally suck to get out of diapers only to get right back into them...so we'll see. Maybe #3 will be born and we'll decide that we're done. We're just playing it by ear.

Stephanie2167 · December 2009

I would like two but we'll see how this one goes.

ktsnshn · December 2009

We are thinking 2-3 depending on how things go with no. 1.

slc2b · December 2009

More than likely just this one which right now is fine with me

I have 2 step kiddos who are 12 and 10. I am pretty sure my DH will veto a 4th but who knows, he is waaaay more into this baby than I ever dreamed he would be.

Oh crap, I'm feeling the exact same way. Due to my pre-pregnancy medical conditions my dr wants me to have this baby and then get knocked up again immediately after, sounds like a blast, (NOT.) I want 2-3 kids, but I'm really struggling with this pregnancy.

Laura G · December 2009

This is my second pregnancy and this has definitely been harder than the first, but I still think we for sure want 3 and possibly 4.

FemmeNat01 · December 2009

This is my first pregnancy too and this is it. We are having twins but no matter what, I will not get pregnant again.

So, 2 for us.

Mrs.ABC · December 2009

If the next one is a girl we will stop. If #2 is a boy we will try again for a girl. If we end up with 3 boys we will adopt a girl and stop at 4.

Mrs. Reckling · December 2009

2

shari_rngleson · December 2009

3! we are halfway there

Faancy · December 2009

Probably 2.

lj smith · December 2009

DH and I each have 4 siblings and would like to have 3 kids or more.

IrishBrideND · December 2009

2

aliinportland · December 2009

I want 2, my husband wants 4, so, as he says, we compromised on 2.

emily0829 · December 2009

3. So, one more after this one, biologically. Then, we would like to adopt an older child. Maybe after this one and in between the next one.

KRISTA555 · December 2009

We both want at least 4... but no more than 6 probably. Of course lots of things can change in the future...

We would love to adopt one or two, so there's a possibility I will only give birth to 2 or 3 and also adopt. Adoption is something we have both always wanted to do our whole lives, and even while I'm pregnant I still dream about it... So I'm sure we will.,, just a matter of timing and money.

butterbeansmama · December 2009

2 - we don't want to be outnumbered...lol.

Seriously, if finances allowed, we would probably have 3, but I want to be able to spend on things like travel, schooling, etc. This may be hard in our current situation with 3 kids. Who knows, things may change. I'll never say never.

Maplebear · December 2009

Dh wants 1-2, I want 3. I told him that if he got snipped after #2 then that would be it, but since he is not excited about that I told him that we would probably end up with 3.

gypsywitch · December 2009

2. This is my last.

brenisengaged · December 2009

2 or 3. Possibly 4, but we'll see how we do with this first one and what financial shape we're in a few years. DH and I are both the youngest of 2 so 3 would be nice to have. I love big families!

MFalor · December 2009

I definitely want another after this one. 4 seems like a good number, but I'll go higher if a) I end up being a good parent and b) we can afford it. I'd really like to adopt, too.

dstar · December 2009

Probably 1...but no more than 2. DH is deathly afraid #2 would be twins and then we would have 3 kids. I am happy to just have 1 but we will see after this one is born.
