[quote=Anonymous]We stopped after 2. We had theoretically been open to having 3, but a few things made us stop at 2: * We like our family dynamic with 4 of us. This was THE most important factor. * I didn't love being pregnant or post-op (mine were both C-sections) recovery. The infant stage was also not my favorite (the most fun age is 18 months-2.5 years old). My second didn't sleep through the night for the first 11 months, which was really, really hard. * DH and I like being able to provide 1:1 attention and divide and conquer activities as they have gotten older. * We have more money and time for each of their activities, for family vacations/travel, etc. Having only two also meant that we didn't need to factor more bedrooms into our housing search or invest in a minivan.[/quote]
