How many kids did you want before you had any? How many do you want after having your first?

i used to always say i wanted 3. i have 2 brothers and 3 always seemed like the perfect number.

now i say i want 4... but really i'd love 6... or more! we're planning on 4 but i have a feeling we'll probably end up with 5.

Ive always wanted 6 cuz thats what my granny has. Stevens fine with 6 as long as we can afford them all. His mom had to work three jobs when his dad was in jail so he doesnt ever want our kids to not have what they need.

I'm still kind of undecided. I originally thought I wanted 2....I think I still do. But Adriana is a handful. Not really naughty, just busy and we have so much fun with her. I'd feel guilty to take her out of the spotlight. On the other hand, I'd feel guilty for not giving her a sibling. But once we get into our forever home I'm sure we'll have another one. We'll have a boy. HA! If only it worked like that. Razz

I know this doesn't really apply to me, as I don't have any yet. But, I thought I would answer anyway.

I alway always always wanted as many as we could afford, be it 2 or 6. But, with this whole ttc being so hard on me both physicaly and emotionaly, I'm not sure I want to do this again. I'm sure I will change my mind. But as of right now, 1 is all I'm asking for. I'll consider myself insainly fortunate if that happens...ever.

Before I got pregnant I said I wanted one. Now I think I would like 2 or 4. We will probably end up with 2 though. If #3 would happen to come along then we would have to go for 4. I'm crazy...I don't like the odd #.

I always said I never wanted kids just because I didn't think I could do it. But now that I have one, I want one more then I'm done Smile

I want 3. Aaron wants 2. We want our two to be kind of close in age, so maybe after our second I'll wait a while and then start working on him. Wink
