How many do you want?

How long have you been married?
How many do you kids have?
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one?
How many do you want?
How many years apart do you want them/have them?
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done?
Just curious.........
DH and I have been married for almost 4 years. We only have one (17 months)
We want 2 but I don't really know if I want to do all of that again, plus money is a HUGE issue right now-we don't have much-so it just seems really irresponsible to TTC anytime soon.
If anything we'd wait until DD is 3. Then I also think about how it might be easier/better to just get pregnant now since I am already a SAHM with no job on the horizon for at least the next year or two. But I can't really justify it.
Also hysterectomies run in my family due to really bad uterine fibroids( grandma was 34, mom was 32, aunt was 35) so I'd really like to be done before 31/32. I don't want to risk myself or a baby.

Re: How many do you want?
How many do you kids have? 2 kids 14 yr old and a 6 month old.
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one? We wanted the second since DD was 6 yrs old it just took us that long
How many do you want? I want 4 DH wants a 3rd and done. But he did want to be done after our son so we will see.
How many years apart do you want them/have them? They are 14 yrs apart now but we would like to conceive sometime in the next year so the next one isn't as far apart from our son
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done?
I do not have a time line or age limit. I have to use fertility meds to get pregnant now I guess so I can't be picky.
How many do you kids have? Two step kids, 22 and 14, and One of our own, 16 monhts
How many do you want? When I was younger, I wanted three, then when I was older, two. Now that I am OLD, one is quite enough.
How many years apart do you want them/have them? I would have liked to have them 1.5 years apart.
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? I was 35 when I met and married DH, who was 39. We BOTH did not want to be old parents. We agreed that I had to be pregnant by the time I turned 38. I was very lucky that I got pregnant two weeks before that.
How long have you been married? 3 years this July, but we've been together for 11.5 years.
How many do you kids have? Just Miles.
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one?
How many do you want? Thought I wanted 4. Then Miles was born. I think we may be "one and done".
How many years apart do you want them/have them? If I were to have more, I would want Miles to be at least 2.5 when the second is born. I don't know that I could handle two babies at the same time.
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? Not at this point. We're just discovering that we're happy with an only child. If that changes at some point in the future, we'll re-evaluate then.
How long have you been married? Four years in July
How many do you kids have? one, a 2 year old DD
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one? n/a
How many do you want? probably just 1
How many years apart do you want them/have them? n/a
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? We haven't made the final decision yet, but are leaning strongly to sticking with one child. I think if we don't have a second by the time I'm 38 we'll call it quits. I'm 35 now and we wouldn't want our kids any more than 5 years apart.
How many do you kids have? 2
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one? There was never even a possibility that we would only have one
How many do you want? 3 possibly 4
How many years apart do you want them/have them? We might start trying for #3 around this time next year
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? I am 37 now so time is definitely not on our side. We had no issues getting pg with the first two but if I had problems we would just stop trying and be totally happy with what we have. My mom had me when she was 40 (my dad was 41) and they were the most amazing parents ever, so being an "older" mom doesn't bother me at all
DS 3.12.08
DD 7.11.09
DD 8.01.13
How many do you kids have? Have 1, pregnant with #2
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one?
How many do you want? We'll see how the first 2 go. Probably 3, but we're going to wait at least 2 years after this one to ttc again (if ever).
How many years apart do you want them/have them? The first 2 will be 13 months apart.
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? I'll be 28 when #2 is born. If we do have one more, it will be before I turn 32.
How many do you kids have? 3
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one? I had DD#1 when I was 18. DH and I married and had DS. We decided to have another because he wanted at least 3 so we had DD#2. Had she been a boy, we may have tried for one more.
How many do you want? 3. We're done:)
How many years apart do you want them/have them? While our spacing really isn't fair to DD#1, I wasn't about to have another one so young (or with my ex :::shudder:::). However, it's nice now because she can babysit so I can run errands without kids. DS and DD#2 are good spacing..not too close, but they still play well together.
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? I wanted to be done with babies by age 30. DD#2 was born 6 months before my 30th birthday:)

How many do you kids have? 2
If you have 2 or more, what made you want to have a second/third/fourth one? DH and I both have siblings and knew we wanted more than one.
How many do you want? We have 2 and we are done.
How many years apart do you want them/have them? They are 17 months apart. Originally we wanted them 2-3 years apart but I love that they are so close now!
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? I am only 25(26 in couple weeks) but we are done. I wanted kids before I was 30.
How long have you been married? 2 years in November.
How many do you kids have? 1.

How many do you want? 2 of my own. I hope to adopt 2 later.
How many years apart do you want them/have them? No more than 2.5 years apart.
Do you have a time line/age limit when you will stop or be done? I always wanted to have kids before I was 30 but DS arrived 6 months and 7 days after I turned 30, so that was blown out of the water. We'll be done having biological children after the next baby.
