DH is planning on getting a vasectomy so I think the chances are pretty slim that we will ever go back on our decision. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450740 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 14:05:59 +0000 Foodnerd81 450740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my friends are just starting to have babies so no one is really saying that now. My brother and SIL are one and done and I believe them-- they were older when they started and are very happy with the one. My mom expresses her doubts, and her concerns about their age for when they change their mind. She only says it to me and my sisters, not my brother or SIL, but it still pisses me off for their sake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450712 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 13:16:41 +0000 SugarplumsMom 450712@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Superhero: I totally fall into this category! I almost written off another baby entirely. But now, I don't know ...</p> <p>As for doubting ppl, I don't really have any friends that say this since most of them had their kids way before me. A few say they want another baby - I doubt that more. They usually just say it in passing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450698 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 12:59:27 +0000 pelikila 450698@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No. Being one of those people that is one and done it can become irritating and hurtful when people think they know you and your future better than you do and continue to tell you that you are wrong or mistaken and will change your mind. Perhaps I've had a poor experience with others sharing their opinions a little too freely. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450678 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 12:13:18 +0000 heffalump 450678@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There's a certain someone on here that says she's done and I don't believe her!</p> <p>I have a friend who got her tubes tied so I know that she's for sure when she says she's done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450669 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:57:00 +0000 Andrea 450669@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: yeah, I think most people want 2? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450667 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:54:57 +0000 autumnlove 450667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I have a few one and done friends that I truly believe...but not many! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450665 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:50:49 +0000 T-Mom 450665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Most of my friends are pretty open about wanting more, and no one is one and done. I do, however, doubt myself when I say I'm done! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450657 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:43:14 +0000 Andrea 450657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I have a few friends who I truly believe are stopping at one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450655 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:41:24 +0000 blackbird 450655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not really. i think some of my friends really do only want one kid. But most of them are in the "never say never" camp. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450652 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:40:00 +0000 autumnlove 450652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Most of the friends I doubt have one kid going through something...not sleeping through the night, potty training or bad eating habits! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450648 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:34:15 +0000 Mrs. Superhero 450648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I doubt them if they only have one baby and it's still really little. Sometimes you feel like you never want to do it again...but then you do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450647 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:33:51 +0000 Andrea 450647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How many kids do they already have? </p> <p>I actually doubt the ones who say they want 5 kids! I think they will stop at 2 or 3. :-D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-ever-not-believe-people-when-they-say-they-are-done-having-kids#post-450644 Sun, 16 Dec 2012 11:29:03 +0000 autumnlove 450644@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol...I would never say anything but I definitely doubt some of my friends when they say they don't want anymore kids! I am putting my money on future pregnancy announcements from some these friends! :-) </p>
