[quote=Anonymous]I would encourage you to take this decisionkid by kid. We originally though we wanted 4 kids. We ended up with 3 kids in 4 years. I love where we are with 3. It's a lot of work but it's working for me. My husband still wants a 4th but I'm on the fence. my pregnancies have gotten progressively harder with the last one ending with a stressful induction due to possible pre-eclampsia. My body has also had a harder time recovering--this 3rd baby really did a number on my abs. Also, I'm tired. I'm happy but tired. I think with 3 I can manage cooking and laundry and still be present in all activities and I worry with a 4th, I'll lose that balance and feel more like a maid. I'm not saying you'll have the same experience as me but it's possible that with each kid (and the phases they will each go through) you may change your mind about how many you want. It's fun to dream and plan but I think kids is an area to wait and see... [/quote]
