I would love 2 children (ideally a boy & a girl), if I had 2 girls I would go for the boy. Time is ticking away for me though....

2 God willing

I'd even love 3 but I dont think it's in the cards for us.

Even if I didnt have another one, I'm so blessed to have my boy, I truly thank God for him every day, he's such a joy.

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

3-4 - but it all depends on if i can 'handle' that many - FH is definitely pushing for more rather than less -

I want 4!! Definitely want a set of twins tho!!!

FH wants 4 or 5....YIKES!! I will be 26 when we marry (27--2 months later) SO I am NOT getting any younger...we hafve not decided if we will TTC immediately, or if we will wait a year or so....Lets get the wedding outta the way first!

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

Well DH and I originally wanted 4. Then when we realized the cost factor we said 2.
Then my son was born, god love em, I decided he was going to be the only 1.
Well I changed my mind about having an only child and decided to have another one, giving us 2 children.

Then DH and I were talking about adoption. So as it stands right now, we plan on having one more child and adopting two,

Leaving us a grand total of 4 kids, which is what we said in the first place!!

PS - I dont ever ever ever want to be blessed with multiples!! My son is more than I can handle on most days, the idea of two at a time is enough to make me want to turn off my plumbing!!

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

what does TTC mean?

I think we will try for 3, but I would be happy with 2. I will be 34 by the time I get married so to be honest even if I have 1 I'll be thrilled

1 but if I have twins (a psychic told my mother I would, and there are twins on both sides of my family) then that would be great too!

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

I only want two. and Hopefully one si a girl, since I want to name her my last name, and is the only reason I will be giving up my last name.

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

to all whom want only 1 child, but are not one themselves....

i am one and hated and still hate it to this day. i wish i had a brother or sister not only to share things with, but for when big events happen like my mom's 50th birthday party.

we would like 3 children as long as i can have them without risk to myself. i have epilepsy and it may interfear with my pregnanies.

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

i would love 2 or 3 and i think we're in agreement on that
i grew up in a family with 4 kids and while it was great that there was always someone around (we were all really cloe in age as well)
but i think 4 might be a little tough for me to handle
i would like them to be close in age though....

Re: Survey: How many children do you want

I would like two, FH wouldn't mind if they came out 5 year old boys that he could teach to be men. I would like one of each, but would be happy with a boy if it made sean happy. Grateful for whatever is in the cards...please be at least one though.....
