How many LO's do you have and want?

Lauraa00 · September 2013

A lot of mammas on the bump have already BTDT. I'm curious to know how many you have and how many you want! When / if you hit saturation point, do you think you or your SO will find more permanent means of BC?

Tantan2779 · September 2013

This is my 4th. I am 36 & officially do e after this one. DH will not get fixed, I am considering tying my tubes since I will have a c-section. Not sure yet though.

kali55 · September 2013

DH has two daughters from a previous marriage and we have one son together. This is #2 for us, #4 for him. I'm done with this one and I think he is too. I'm pretty sure that DH is going to get snipped.

JessieC0726 · September 2013

I always said I want 3 but this is my first pregnancy so we'll see how things go/work out lol

homediva · September 2013

This will be our second, I have a feeling we will end up with 3 eventually, though I think DH would be happy with two!

Rogue237 · September 2013

This is my first. I'd like two total, one of each. If we get two of the same we'd consider a third. Whenever we're done, DH will get snipped - it's just an easier, less invasive procedure.

bornmommy · September 2013

This will be my 2nd child. My son is 16 months. We want three, maybe four.

4maddison · September 2013

This baby will be #2. I want 4. DH wants 2. We will see.

rlmanning · September 2013

This is baby # 2 for us. After having DD I was one and done. And then about 9 months later I started in with baby fever. DH wasnt ready for #2 and wasnt sure he wanted another. I finally convinced him and here we are pregnant with #2, 2 years after DD was born.

Its funny ladies how you easily forget the horrible parts of pregnancy. I couldnt wait to get pregnant again. I kept saying how much I loved to be pregnant. hahahahahaha... how soon we forget the horrible 1st Tri! LOL

LolaX2 · September 2013

We have one 20 month old son. God willing if this pregnancy results in a healthy baby this will be it for us. We had thought about possibly one more but due to too many issues with being high risk we decided not to push it, We will be over the moon happy if we get to take this baby home.

Edit***to add info***

I am debating getting tubes tied as this one will be a 2nd c-section due to medical issues.

Lauraa00 · September 2013

I'm still debating whether I want one or two. This will be my first and having been raised as an only child, I like the idea of one but my DH really seems to want two. I also know very few siblings that actually get along (when there's 2) which doesn't inspire me to have more either.

I think my DH will get snipped eventually since I can't use hormonal BC thanks to blood clotting problems.

GrinAndBarrett · September 2013

We'll stop with this one. That will make two!

smashton14th · September 2013

This will be our 2nd and our last one. I would like suggestions on BC that isn't as permanent as tube tying but i do not have to worry about a pill.

cdominique11 · September 2013

I never wanted kids. When I got pregnant with my first, I was done. Now that I'm on #2, I'm completely done. If I have a c-section, I'm getting my tubes tied.

douglamj · September 2013

This is our 1st and we would like 3 or 4:)

maelic · September 2013

This is our first. Husband wants two, I want three. We'll see how baby number one goes.

Dianakdee · September 2013

We're having our first! I want 4 more! I love kids and will be working with kids and I've always dreamed of having the same amount of kids as my mom. After 5 I'm sure I'll get my tubes tied .

sambrownmac10 · September 2013

We have 3 foster kids (teens) this is our first biological child, we want 2-3 biological kids.
If I end up with cs I will get my tubes done, if not dh will get a vasectomy.

porterlove525 · September 2013

I would like 3 or 4 (I come from a big family), but given my history and age I'm not sure it's in the cards for me. We definitely want to try for a second if all goes well with this LO.

Serenla · September 2013

Two, Dh and I want just enough to replace us and then I will probably get an iud but I want to convince him to get a snip. Cheaper overall.

Sarahjess06 · September 2013

Originally we both wanted 3. We had a son... I still want 3 he wants to be done

now we are on number 2 if its a girl I'm okay with being done. If its a boy I will probably want to try for number 3.

joyfullyfound · September 2013

We have a one and a half year old daughter, and this is #2. We want four, but we'll just take it has it comes, and see how we do. We might stop at three for financial reasons...

Sisimama10 · September 2013

This is my second and last!

bingbongsmama · September 2013

I have 1 and felt totally fulfilled with 1 but we decided she needs a sibling. We're done after this baby

thomas930 · September 2013

This will be our 3rd. I have a 4 year old girl and a 17 month old boy. We talked about having somewhere between 4 and 6 kids with a mix of biological and adopted...something like 4 bio and 2 adopted...doesn't really matter though. We really just take it one kid at a time and when we finally decide that our family is complete we wont do anything permanent...we will stick with NFP.

Beckypooh09 · September 2013

This is my third and last. Not sure want kind of permanent BC we're going to do. DH isn't sure he's ready for permanent.

AnnH74 · September 2013

We are on number 2 and will probably, if all goes well, have at least a couple more. My DH wanted 5 boys all at once-ha ha-obviously that didn't happen.

acrookston · September 2013

I have one daughter from a previous relationship and this is DH and my first together. He wants four total but I'm wondering if he will change his mind once the LO gets here....my DD as already three when he entered the picture. I want at least another one....we'll have to see how well I can provide for those children emotionally first before we decide on a fourth LO

Andrewsgal · September 2013

This is our third and final. DH will get snipped!

LBStewart · September 2013

This is our second. We have a 10 month old girl. Right now, we're planning on having 3 total. Four is the max that I'd like.

pineconey · September 2013

I never had a specific number in mind, but more than 1. Though at this point, I'm just trying to make it through this one... Maybe I'll adopt the rest...

porterlove525 · September 2013

@thomas930, were planning to adopt at least 1, if not more and I really want to foster kids who have aged out of the system if we can. I figure if I can financially and emotionally provide for children who would be left in the system why not provide them with the best life I can. Blended families are the best

ricekez · September 2013

This is #2. I want about 5. We're Catholic, so we don't do artificial birth control, just NFP as needed. I'd like to adopt or take in foster kids if it's in the cards for us, too.

megs3084 · September 2013

These twins are our first babies. I always wanted 4, but given how hard it was to get here, I'm prepared for the potential this is it. We do have 3 frozen embryos though. As far as BC, I haven't thought that far. Our infertility struggles has really turned me off to BC.

Mustardseed2007 · September 2013

I want 2, and this will be my 2nd. I think my H will eventually get snipped b/c even though I am having a Csection I don't want to tie them immediately after we have this one just in case we change our minds or something.

bootsiebabe · September 2013

This is our first. We want one of each, so we will see what #2 brings. If it is the opposite sex we will be done. If not, we will try for a third. Three is our max though so if we end up with three of the same sex, oh well. We have been discussing permanent birth control options and are leaning towards DH getting snipped.

AcaAwkward · September 2013

This is our 2nd. DH really wants a 3rd, but I'm 99.9% set on this being our last. I love being at home with DD when she's young and want to do the same with this LO, but I am also itching to get back to my career.

BuggasMom · September 2013

I want 3 this will be my 2 !

mandiroo · September 2013

I'm pregnant with #2. Always wanted 3, but we'll see how it is with 2 first. ;o)

beautifulstr13 · September 2013

This will be our second and our last. Getting and staying pregnant is too hard physically and mentally for us. If my hospital will do it I will get my tubes tied during my c-section. If not i will get an iud. DH might get snipped.

Leticiasmugala · September 2013

This is our first. I want 4. DH wants 3. So somewhere in there. But we would like to adopt as well. So I don't know how many biological children we will have. At least 2.
