  regenab:

  I would do at least 1 more (a singleton would be nice), but ideally I would love to do 2 more kids (each singletons, I really would not want another set of twins, love my girls, but they are a lot of work). My DH has no idea I would love to have 2 more. He knows I have it in the back of my mind that I would like to do 1 more, which he says absolutely no. I understand his thinking on no more, but I do long for another baby.

  Our situation is very similar to this.  I'd love two more, and after having been on bedrest for 14 weeks with my twin pregnancy, having singletons (twice obviously) would be my preference.  However, our financial situation is such that we are probably done with the two we have.  DH knows I'd love at least one more, but is pretty adamant that we're done.  
  

  After 20 months TTC with PCOS, we were blessed with twins!
  They arrived at 36 weeks after PTL and bedrest for 14 weeks.

  Three, possibly four.  We've been TTC#2 for 16months, I'm so sick and tired of wanting to be pregnant, we can't move forward with a RE for a couple more months due to DH having surgery.  If we're talking a perfect world, I would get pregnant with twins soon and be done.  IF is so mentally draining, and takes a toll on my mood (and therefore my marriage).  FWIW I know twins would not be a cake walk or anything close to it, but I'd rather be stressed over babies and how much work they are than stressed over not having a baby.
  

  This EXACTLY!
