Stolen from the ttc board

How many children do you want?


I think I want 2. Anymore than that and I'm afraid of how much work that will be. lol. 2 seems like a great number!!

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I picked two.

It depends though. Since I have the boy, I want the girl. I told my DH that we would keep on trying. Hopefully the next one is a girl so we can stop.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

if i were having a boy, then i would say 2 because we already have a girl


now that im going to have two girls, i would like to MAYBE try for #3 and hope its a boy

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

i voted for 3

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

In theory, I'd love 3. From a practical standpoint (for how big our house is, how much money we make, lifestyle we live, etc.), I'm picking 2.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I voted for 3..but this has been a rough pregnancy and I don't think we could afford to do it again with being on bedrest...so I think we'll stop at 2!

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I chose 3 since we are done after this baby is born, but I think if finances (and DH) would allow it, I'd want 4 or 5.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

We would like two but what will be will be. Right now im just praying for one healthy & happy one.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

i picked 1....but i really want 2

dh and i have kind of decided that for now we're 1 and done

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I really want 2 definately no more than that!!

DH though is really insisting on having 1

i know i can win but we definately need to be more financially stable and have bigger than a 2 bedroom place before we can think about 2

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I always wanted 2

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I want 3.

I grew up in a house with 2 sisters and they are my favorite people in the world. I couldn't imagine only having one of them. I feel like it would have been a boring childhood with any less, because when my older sister grew out of playing house and barbies I had my younger. When I was mad at one, if one was busy, ect, I had the other. I want to give my kids the same thing. I loved never feeling 'lonely' when I was a kid at home. There was ALWAYS a playmate around. But anymore than 3 I feel would be very overwhelming for me.

DH on the other hand only wants 2, but that's only because he's thinking of it financially and 3 kids is expensive. But you just don't know what the future holds. So we'll just have to wait and see!!

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I think i voted 3...

but its between 2 and 3.

if we had tons of money maybe 4. haha! i'm crazy!!

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

We think 2 is perfect for us...

But if any surprise 3rd's came along we'd be thrilled

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I didn't vote, because our plan was always to stop at 2. But on our first month of TTC#2 I got pregnant with twins. Which means we are now at 3. We are DONE.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

i want 3 dh wants 2. only time will tell.....

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I want 2. DH wants 3. If I don't get one of each with the first 2 I might try a 3rd time but thats it...haha

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I think I only want 1

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I want 2!

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I want 2 but will probably have 1 - just bc of age/money/space I'm not sure we'll end up with more than one but who knows!!!

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I want 1, DH wants 2...I'll probably win this one though .

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I voted 2, but I really want 3.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

I want four but I'm pretty sure we're only going to have two.

Re: Stolen from the ttc board

2 and that's it.
