I voted for 3 cause were really in the 2-4 boat. If it was up to DH we'd have 6-8 I think. He's already chomping at the bit for more babies but I'm a little reluctant. I'd like to get my body as close to back as I can and let it stay that way for a while before I go through pregnancy again. I definitely want to be done by 35 either way so we have 8 years to figure it out.
I can't even answer this poll! I can't stop debating this every ssecond off every day. I always thought that I'd either have no kids or 5 kids. But now 2 is so hard for me and I feel guilty about every choice i make. I don't think We can afford to have 3 kids and give them the things we want to. But I'm from a big family and having 2 feels weird. We're open to adoption so maybe that would be what happens. I just don't know !
I chose SS because it was so hard getting DD. I don't know if I emotionally can try for number 3. There were so many struggles and heartbreaks. I would love her to have a sibling but.... Only time will tell. And DH and I have discussed adoption.
I am one and done. FYI - I am an only child and loved it.
I had a super easy pregnancy, but I did not like the "confinement" of it all (for lack of better words). Belly in the way of things I normally did. Also, I figured karma would come back and get me and my next pregnancy would be from hell. Ha!
Also, I just don't think I am cut out for more than one. I have watched those mamas with multiple kids. They have a gift that I just don't have. I love LO to pieces and I want to raise him the absolute best I can. Something I don't think I am capable of with more than one.
So my saying I say to ppl when they ask is "I am done unless the Lord intervenes".
