[quote=Anonymous]Be open to the idea that you really don't know how many kids you want until you have your first and experience parenthood. I actually suggest you have fewer kids than you originally planned. Seriously. We thought we wanted 2 but didn't really have a good reason for it other than siblings are the norm and there's some stigma against only children. Moms' marital satisfaction goes down after each kid but only recovers fully after the first. Having a single child is a route to marital harmony and keeping the adult parts of your life intact without much disruption or expense, while still experiencing the joys of parenthood (and the challenges too -- it's easiER, but still not always easy!).[/quote]
