If money was no object, how many kids would you have?

I think I would like to have 4. And I would love for them to all be close in age, even 4 under 4!

If money was no object, I'd have a housekeeper so no washing bottles, picking up, cleaning, etc. to tie up my time.

I think I have enough energy and love to give 4 kids all the attention they deserved and needed but anymore than that would be difficult for me.

I love the idea of having lots of siblings to play with and big family gatherings and lots and lots of little grandbabies when I get old!

Oh, and a trustworthy nanny/babysitter who could help out on occassion (no live in, just for breaks).


how many would you have?

Re: If money was no object, how many kids would you have?

Money is only a small part of our reasoning for why we are done with 3 kids... it's mainly that I need to be able to give each child as much attention as they could possibly need and if I had more I would feel like I was shafting them.. kwim

Re: If money was no object, how many kids would you have?

how many kids i decide to have really isn't a function of money... it's more a function of having enough time to devote to each child while being able to maintain some degree of life outside being a mother (i love my job!).

so having said that, i'll probably have two or three children. the first two will be relatively close in age (ds is 11 months now and we are not trying per se... but not *not trying*, if you know what i mean Chat Icon ). as for having a third... we'll decide about that once we've got two.

obviously, ALL of this is speculation and depends on whether i am fortunate enough to be blessed with more children Chat Icon

Just 2, which is what I currently have (well second is on the way). Money really wasn't a factor at all in my decision, it's more my personal comfort level.

Now if money was no object, I would hire myself a LOT more help around the house, lol!!!! Housekeeper for sure, though I would still do all the cooking myself because I enjoy it.

If money was no object, I would get a mother's helper and have at least 5 or 6.
