[quote=Anonymous]I am friends with three families that have 4 kids and am acquaintances with several families that have at least 5.

In one family with 4 kids, the mom came from a family of four kids and wanted to replicate. She is very type A, needs very little sleep, lives near extended family and could afford to pay for a nanny/housekeeper when the kids were little. Both parents work fairly high powered jobs.

Second family of four has a different personality but all 4 kids were planned. This mom has said she's OK with the noise and chaos of four kids. Both parents work UMC jobs.

Third family with four kids planned 2 and had 2 surprises. They're Catholic,  and the husband is the youngest of 12. Lots of family nearby to help as both parents work.

Of the families with 5+ kids, two are very conservative Catholics, one is MAGA evangelical, and one planned on 4 kids but had a surprise 5th. The last family are very much free spirits. Both parents are physicians but have spent most of their careers working in developing countries so haven't lived a typical dual-doctor lifestyle. [/quote]
