  I only have one sister and we never got along. I always wished I had another sibling. Plus, I love big families with lots of people around!

  We will probably have two and adopt one. adopting is a goal of ours and we may do foster care.

  I would like to stop at 2, DH wants to stop at 3. We aren't going to make any final decisions until after DD is in school full time.

  We think 3-4, with adoption in there somewhere. Both of my parents had 4 siblings, and I hated only having one brother when I was growing up (2nd brother wasn't born until I was 12).

  I would too  

  
  

  Our plan is to take it one kid at a time and evaluate our situation at those times, if it seems feasible to add another baby then we will, if we feel that it would stretch our family too much then we wont. We don't have set limit.

  If this is a girl, I think I'll be ready to finish. I don't like the idea of just one boy and one girl. I love the idea of sisters or brother and being really close with your sibling (not that brothers and sister can't be very best friends, I realize this).

  Awesome!  I'm a foster care caseworker.  There's such a huge need for foster and adoptive families.  Fostering can be heartbreaking at times, but it is immensely rewarding.

  I voted 5+ because we have 3 foster kids (teens) we have had for 10 years, we consider them our own and we want 2-3 biological kids.

  If this one is a boy we are done. If it's another girl we may try 1 more time so that would be 4 total.

  I'd really like four, but I think we'll probably have two. We don't want them to be super close together and I'll be 30 when our first is born.

  Can't decide between 2 or 3. So tempting to just be done after this one, but I'd like a big family. I voted three though.

  We have always said that we wanted 2-3!   With us having TTTC and it taking 3 years and the emotional and financial strain I will be okay if we just have 1.   Hopefully this pregnancy works out!  Then we have 2 frozen embryos!  If that works great!!!  But if it doesn't then I am done with treatments... That's how I feel as of now!  It is just really hard!

  I used to say I wanted 5, but once DS was born I went down to 3 and I've stayed there. I love a big family but I'm afraid the one-on-one attention would be so much less with too many kids.

  I want 4 b/c I'm from a family of 4. But I realize that I might change my mind when I actually have to handle the work of motherhood. My husband says no way to 4 for financial reasons. I can't be mad that he wants to be responsible.

  My husband and I had talked about having 4 kids. I am from a blended family of 6 and my husband from a family of 3. We only have one right now with a second on the way. I feel like we really just have to wait and see how everything goes though. If we get to three and are overwhelmed I would not push for a fourth. If we did have four and still wanted more then that would be okay, but we are trying to take it one at a time.
