WDYT - # of children?
| Thu, 04-06-2006 - 3:10pm |
Everyone has a different idea of the number of children to have... How many children would you like to have? and has this number changed since your first pregnancy ? or after the birth of your first child?

Not sure how many children yet...kinda thinking 4-5. We have 2 right now and are expecting #3. It hasnt' really changed since we had our first child. We would also like to adopt so who knows what will come of it.

Well We never had a set number . We have 6 children 16,10,7,6,2,1 and Hoping that #7 will on the way soon. I have one sister and ALWAYS wished I had more siblings,My husband would have been happy with 3 But After Each addition we realize how much we Truley enjoy the size of our Family despite the Many stares we get when we go anywhere as a family, There is nothing that we would change. Our Children are Best Buddies and there is always someone to play with, Whenever they have a Dance competion or Baseball game They Always have thier own Cheering Sqaud!!!! Its AWESOME!!!!. My husband has a Very good Job that allows me to stay home and I Thank My lucky stars everyday that I have been blessed with 6 healthy kids.Although # 7 will probably be it for us, but you never know, I do think Adoption or Foster care will also be in our future after our older children have grown & moved out.
I guess Time will tell

Hi Liz -
How are you?
<
okay I am posting this answer before I read anyones responses...Before I had any kids, which wasn't that long ago, I wanted 5 or 6 kids...lol yea right...Then after the first two (twins) I wanted one more to make three...Then after Rory was born I thought I was done for awhile, but I REALL WANT A BABY GIRL...I live with four men everyday, and I always wanted One little girl and the rest boys...so now I am pregnant with number 4 and I am praying it is a girl, but if its not we are 95% sure we are done, anyway. I never will say 100% because if we don't have a girl, or evn if we do have a girl, things might change...So i guess i can't answer the question well...
to recap:
I wanted 6 before kids
I wanted 3 after first pegnancy with twins
After third boy am now having 4th
Most likely 4 is the magic number
BUT definatly no more than five, EVER
hope that made it clear, lol

mom to Brenn, Braidy, Rory, and Peanut Number 4
FDH and I have agreed to 3 for sure but there is a chance we will go for number four depending on our sitition at the time.
