Question: Do You Want More Children? Posted: 08-07-06 06:49am
Just thought it'd be nice to find who
wants more children and when they plan to
have them...
I'm just nosy lol.
I'm currently pregnant with baby no.3 and
I think this will be the last one for me
but i'd love to hear from other mom's on
if they want any more and when they plan
to have them
well, as this baby was a "surprise", I
don't plan on having my next one within
the next few years... So I voted 4-5
years. That way I can get my
qualifications to become a midwife (i've
finally decided what I wanna do, thanks to
my baba!), and support my little family
properly =)
i like the idea of a 4-5 year gap between
my kids, coz that way this one will be at
school when I have another newborn to look
after!
Then after that, who knows.. My other
half only wants 2 children.. But I want 3
or 4! I might have to start sabotaging
condoms to get my own way...

Haha, zan, that's so bad! ;)
well, i've always thought two years was
the perfect gap...And evenm though I don't
have a baby yet, that's what i'll probably
do...I don't want them to be too far apart
(me and my sister are nine years apart),
but I don't want to be like britney and
have two babies who are one year old (sean
won't turn two until two months after the
new baby turns one). So that's what I
voted, beck. :)

do you and your sis not get on because of
the age gap? Me and my sister are 9 and a
half years apart and even though she can
be bossy sometimes (worse than my parents)
we're very close.. There's a 6 year gap
between me and my brother and we're
immensely close, I love my big bro =)
and yeah.. I know i'm bad! =p

Haha, no beck, I wasn't making fun of you!
I'm just saying, lol. ;)
zan, we do get along...But i'm more like
her mother. I bring her to school every
day, I make her meals, I help her clean
her room, I take her shopping, I pick out
her clothes in the morning, I wake her up
for school, I help her with her homework,
i'm there when she gets home from
school...I even ground her, tell her what
movies she can't watch, etc. And, don't
get the wrong idea, my parents are
great...But my sister's just become the
person i'm responsible for over the years.
I just want my kids to be closer
together. My mom says that i'm maternal
with my sister because of my brother and
my sister dying, and she says that I
unconsciously am trying to protect her? I
dunno.

Before having trey I said I wanted 3-4
(whatever my salary could afford) 2 of my
own and 2 adopted is what I wanted.
Right after having trey I said no more
ever!! Lol now I think 2-3 would be
ideal-2 of my own and 1 adopted. Or
maybe still 2 adopted but one older so I
don't have to do the midnight feedings :)

Well I voted 4-5 years...Because that
gives me and jonathan enough time to get
through college and in a stable job...And
thats what I always wanted before I had
any children..But as you all know I had my
little surprise named jace..Lol...Plus me
and my brother are also 5 years apart and
it was always fun having a older brother
to take up for me...Although sometimes he
was a little mean and beat up on me..But
he made me the tough bi*ch I am today :)
in total I would love to have 4
children..But I doubt that will ever
happen..--but I am thinking about adopting
also..Because its such a gift..And it
would put a huge smile on my face to make
a childs life better...--so actually I
might never have anymore children
myself(unless another surprise pops up)...
But am considering adoption...
Chris and I were going to start trying,
but I thought about it and decided not too
because brayden is such a handful and with
work and things. So were actually
thinking about waiting until 5-6 years or
maybe longer. I love brayden so much and
honestly can't wait to have a bump again!!
Maybe two more around that time with a 2-3
year age gap. If i'm married and such.
Me and my sister are 3 years apart and I
love her to death. We're really close,
we get along so well. We can be friends
but she also has a tendency to be maternal
with me.

haha I was only joking that's why I wrote
lol at the end.
There is 17 years between me and my lil
sister courtney and i'm more like a mother
to her. I have her stay over and I look
after her like she's one of my own. It's
quite sad as I would of liked a sibling
with a closer age gap so I could of grown
up with them.

Me and all my sisters are 17 months apart
and I think it was pretty stressful on my
mom so I think I want at emast a 2-3 year
age gap in between.
