Is this your first, last or one of many?

Tinybride08:
DH wants a boy so we will try again. If no boy then, we'll most likely stop there.

This.

Bakes4u · March 2011

This is our second and we are still unsure if we want a 3rd or not. Only time will tell if we want to do that I guess.

cjgiannotti · March 2011

This is our first. We both originally wanted 2 but, due to medical complications, I'm not sure if that's going to be possible or not. That said, we're happy to even have one. And we may consider adoption if a biological child isn't possible for us after this.

Stephcara · March 2011

I always wanted 3 and this will be #2. I may re-evaluate, we'll see. Mh is so done after this one but I am not sure.

CariannelovesTim · March 2011

This is our last had DD been another boy it still would have been our last. Two is plenty for us. They will be 21 months apart.

alliejoe · March 2011

We know we want at least one more- just not sure if the next one/s will be biological or adopted.

fluffybuns · March 2011

DH says two, but I would like more. I'm not sure how many more, it would just depend on how each baby adds to our family and how easily we adjust! I don't want any more than 4.

kikijbunny · March 2011

I think it will depend on how the rest of this pregnancy (and the coming year) goes. We've always said that we'd like to have two or three children, and I would really like to give this child at least one sibling, so hopefully we can get pregnant again, and hopefully the pregnancies (this one included) won't take too much of a toll on me. I'm high risk due to my age and a couple of issues, so we'll probably play it by ear.

JUSTBEYOURSELF · March 2011

we will be re-evaluating after this baby. but most likely she will be our first and last.

shellindcwife · March 2011

First, last, only. I'm on the older side of things and this pregnancy has been really tough. I can't do it again, being even older than I am this time. Maybe adoption, but even that seems unlikely now with my age (I've heard that even international agencies won't adopt to 40+).

I've always thought just one. I didn't get married until I was 32 and it took a long time for us to conceive this little guy.

flutepharm87 · March 2011

DH and I have always wavered between having 3 or 4 kids. With the twins, we'll have to see how things go. We definitely want at least 3, so we'll try for a third later on, when we're more financially stable (the twins have stretched the finances just a bit). If we have a girl next, we might stop there. But I also don't want baby #3 to constantly feel left out due to the twins and their bond, so we might go for 4 just because we're having twins now. To keep things even. Honestly, it'll most likely end up being one of those things where we play it all by ear and start trying again if and when we decide the time is right.

heysupnatalie · March 2011

This is my first. I have no idea how many we will end up with but probably not more than 2 or 3. We won't be "trying for a boy" because we are expecting one but I do actually want a girl-maybe. I never did want one but I started to accept the fact that this LO could be a girl right before we had our u/s and I was actually somewhat excited to maybe have one. But we got the boy we were really hoping for, so that's out of the way.
I don't necessarily think you are crazy for the whole keep trying until you get a boy thing, but it would probably suck if you kept having girl after girl after girl until you end up with more kids than you bargained for. Good luck!

kacelle · March 2011

This is our first, and we'd like several more. At some point, we'd like to adopt siblings internationally, so I'm not sure how many more children we'll have biologically.

I think that DH and I both idealized having a much bigger family until this pregnancy. I consider it a relatively easy pregnancy, but it's still not something I'm sure that I could go through too many more times!

I'm one of three girls, and DH is one of six boys, so good luck trying for a boy! Haha.

JMU_Bride09 · March 2011

I definitely don't think that's crazy! Carrying on the family name is very important So long as you can financially afford the children and give them the love and attention they need, I don't think it's a bad idea at all.

This little guy is our first, and we are hoping to have many more. I would like 5, but DH would like 4, so we'll see how it goes, but we definitely want a big famiy either way. Hopefully God will continue to bless us as He did with this little one

MilosMommy7 · March 2011

our 2nd and probably our last.

heikem87 · March 2011

This is my first but we definitely want more. I would like two kids who arent too far apart in age and maybe one as a little nestling. It?s a family tradition so to say lol But it all also depends if my hubby stays in the Army or not!

mama bird77 · March 2011

This is our third and last! And yes...after I had my second I thought I was done..when she turned one, the fever hit again. However....my hubbie is getting the big "V" after this lil guy so no more and I am good with that!

AMYRENEE27 · March 2011

The twins are #'s 2 and 3 for us. I would love 4 children but we will see in a year or so.

I had a mc in between my son and the twins and I am so worried about going through it again.

kjbarber86 · March 2011

This LO is my first and we're planning on one more. I'll be a little sad if I don't have a girl next time around but I could never be pregnant more than twice!

EJensify · March 2011

This is my second, DH's 3rd, our 1st together. That makes 4 between us. We might go for one more in a few years.

mzsparklepdx · March 2011

Our little girl will be our first and only. In a perfect world, I think both of us would have liked two, but because of our age and financial situation, we are happy and grateful to be one and done.

KadensMama · March 2011

This is our second and most likely our last.

mzsparklepdx · May 2011

One and done and totally happy with that decision!

MrsPLW71 · May 2011

One and done. We aren't 100% happy, but with our ages and budget, it is the most responsible thing to do and will enable us to give our daughter a fullfilling life.
