[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot of it is my personality. My one child has a happy, relaxed, attentive mother. If I had had two or more, the kids likely would have had an irritable, stressed, annoyed, sour-faced mom for much of their lives. [/quote] I have 3 and I agree with this -- I am often irritable, stressed, annoyed, and sour-faced. I always longed for a big family but the truth is that I don't really have the personality for dealing with that much chaos and conflict. Definitely don't regret my kids, we have a LOT of good times too, and we are planning on one more so we don't mind the annoyances *that* much, BUT I am sometimes jealous of my friend who has only one. They get to do a lot of stuff that is either impossible or cost prohibitive for a larger family.[/quote]
