[quote=Anonymous]Love my sibling, and always knew I wanted 2 kids. But certainly didn't have baby lust for #2 - hell, I didn't have it for #1. I just knew that when I pictured my family at 60 it included more than one grown kid in it, so if I wanted to get to there I had to get knocked up first. All joking aside, I think it's a very normal course of action to have kids for intellectual reasons even if you're not emotionally feeling a drive to have them - some of us just don't get / operate on those emotional drives. If I had waited to feel 'driven' to have kids I might still not have any (oldest is 5) or have had the second, but I'm very happy we didn't wait longer, and that our kids have one another. And yes, we lucked out and our kids get along / play together really well (2.5 years apart.) I know some of that is pure luck, but we also work hard to foster that relationship, and I do think we have been able to encourage it.[/quote]
