How many kids do you have now?

How many do you think you’ll end up with?

But please don’t judge people’s choices on this thread. It’ll just be interesting to see how things change or don’t.



I wanted 4-6.
I have 2.
I am not able to have more biological children.

Me: 3-5
DH:3

We have 2 and will probably go for #3. #2 is still an infant though. DH and I were both bored growing up in our normal families of 4 (2 adults, 2 kids).

I always wanted two children.

I do not have any living children. I've lost two pregnancies-- one very early in my first trimester, and my daughter later in my pregnancy.

I would still like to have a child, but I am struggling with infertility, (I am not investigating adoption at this time) so I am predicting that I will not have any living children.



So sorry for your losses. Sending you hugs and prayers for fulfillment of your heart's desires.

I thought I might want 2.

We have 1 child.

We are 98% certain we are a one and done family.

Wanted 2, maybe 3. Never really thought much about it.

DH was more of a 1 and done before we had kids.

We have 5.

No way DH wants a 6th and it’s not going to happen. We love having s larger family, but I’m glad to be out of the baby stages.

I've always wanted 3. DH wanted 5, he loves being part of a large family. We have 5, and are done.

4

2

2 (due to age and infertility but I also don't see handling a 3rd or 4th in our lives anyway).

I wanted zero. Husband wanted 4. Our “compromise” was 1. Husband has since become firmly in the 1 and done camp—he had no clue how much work parenting is until our son was born!

I wanted 3, husband wanted 2.
We have one and im pregnant with #2.
We are done after this, there's no way I can do another first trimester with two kids running around, barely surviving with the one now. I asked DH to remind me of this when/if I get baby fever again in a couple years.

I’m one of 3 born close together and loved it: wanted 3

DH is oldest of 4 and felt strongly it was a poor choice for his family / parents: wanted 2, was open to stopping at 1 and was open to seeing how age, energy and resources panned out to consider a 3rd.

I’m 40 and we have two kids (6 and just turned 2). It’s exhausting us so I’m pretty sure we’re done.
