S/O those who are done having kids

Do any of you feel done. As in, you do not have any desire to have more kids? I guess I always thought when we were done I would feel done, but reading some of you say you with you weren't makes me worried. I've got the fever pretty fierce right now. I can't imagine feeling this way after I am "done" having kids. KWIM?

Re: S/O those who are done having kids

  • I think the hardest part of being done would be knowing that you would be experiencing everything for the last time! 

    and then you have people like the Duggars )19 kids and counting), obv that woman doesn't have time to get baby fever before she is KU again. lol

  • Hahaha seriously. I hope I don't have a vicious cycle of baby fever! I would like to have two or three then feel done and not want more. But right now, who knows! Do you just want to have two?
  • Yes, I feel 1 and done no question about it.

    yes, just 2. But now I am begining to think with my luck I will probably get KU with twins! but that would be ok too! 

  • I don't feel done at all. I actually really want 3 but DH says no more. Im still in denial that I will probably never be pregnant or give birth or have a tiny new baby again. ::insert crying face::

  • We are done this ute is closed for good. Fact: I have baby fever. I would love another but it isn't in our cards I feel I missed out on the last few weeks of my pregnancy and DS's last weeks of being an only child. DD was 3 weeks early and we were unprepared. She is growing so quickly, I've been trying to soak it all in but can't. It sucks.
    Sorry no paragraphs, bumping from my phone.

  • We are done. We know we are done and we are at peace with this decision. Neither of us want an odd number of children so if we happened to get pregnant again, we would have a 4th to even it out. I DO NOT want 4 kids.
    i wish i could be joking but my dad is the music teacher at a church so he owuld be mad. we had sex, all the time how bad i know but we dont want to wait and he said GREAT OH KAY! and I was really feeling the wets? down there- too embarsed to say- but he acted like man.

    I really hope I feel this way (many of you feel this way, I just don't know how to do that multiple quote thing so I just quoted the most recent) I hope we don't have three and I'm still feeling extreme baby fever. I think that would suck. 

  • DH and I never tried for kids together and were good with our 2 boys. I never wanted to only have 1 but resigned myself to it. Then we got our big surprise! DH says he wishes now that we'd had Ross earlier and could squeeze in 1 more. He is such a blessing. I can't imagine life without him. I cherish every single thing he does because at 44, he is truly my last.  Tubes tied to make sure!

  • I don't know chick.  H says we are done and I thought we were too but for some reason, I just don't feel done.  I talked him out of getting a V...

  • I feel more done than I did before I had #3, if that helps at all.  I feel that it's a good thing that I had things taken care of permanently b/c Asher is so sweet that he makes me want another.  But, I really don't want another.  I'm old, tired and in over my head as it is. I love them all, but don't think I'm up for another.  I was definitely up for the challenge before.  Now, not so much.  No fever here really.  Not even much sadness about packing up baby things.

  • I know for certain that I am not done.  I hope I will feel at ease once we are done but knowing me after our third (which is our limit) I will still want more.  DH said if we do have three, after I give birth he will get a vasectomy on the same day haha.

  • We wanted two, and we have two.  I will miss not getting the chance to try for a girl, but I really really really don't want to pay for another kid in daycare!  It might kill me if I get another boy, as in, I will be severely outnumbered!  My friends have just started having kids, so I get to live it up through them!

  • I'm pretty sure we are done, but I still have that urge to have a third. In my heart I would love a third, but logically two makes more sense for us. It makes me sad thinking DD2 is my last.

    Exactly this.  Logically we are done - 2 is perfect for our lifestyle/finances and my sanity.  But emotionally I want that newborn stage again:)  I am sad I won't be PG or go through labour/delivery or have the squishy new baby again.  But we are definitely done.   I'm just going to have to come to terms with the emotional aspect. :(
