[quote=Anonymous]I always wanted 4 kids. When my husband and I talked marriage, he said he wanted 2. So we decided that fate would take its course and we'd see how it went. We ended up with 3 children, with my 3rd being born when I was 40. I've always lamented not having that 4th kid, even though it wasn't feasible for us, and never came up as an issue. And I'm well past child-bearing age now. But I sometimes miss that 4th child being there to even things out. It's kind of like when people tell you not to have playdates with 3 kids because one kid always feels left out. I feel the same way. 4 kids just seemed right to me. Nothing to do with wanting to stay home longer or extending babyhood. In my "perfect" life, I would have had 4. Three is darn close, and I am thankful everyday. But I just wanted to add a perspective that while 1, 2, or 3 may feel right for some families, there are some of those out there who crave 4 without ulterior motives.[/quote]
