The older I get, the more I value my four siblings and what they bring to my life. I'd like my kids to have the same support system. As long as they hold on to each other, they'll be OK through anything. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/3#post-122573 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:09:14 +0000 cyndistar3 122573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want one more after this one, maybe two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/3#post-122566 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 18:02:04 +0000 Arden 122566@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We decided to have 3, and then see how we feel. We'd also like to adopt, so you never know. If we can afford it, we may end up with a lot of children! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/3#post-122562 Sat, 14 Apr 2012 17:56:40 +0000 Mrs. Tutu 122562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use to say 2-3. But since conceiving hasn't been easy for us, I find myself wanting more and more children! Adoption is also so important to my husband and I, so I am settled on 4 (2 biological + 2 Adopted).We will see how that turns out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/3#post-77755 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 21:56:16 +0000 anbanan15 77755@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've always said that I did not care how many children I had as long as I had at least 2, so I think we are shooting for the 2-3 range. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/3#post-77716 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 20:21:46 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 77716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we'll be good with 2, but you never know what the world holds for you, so I make no predictions! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-70389 Wed, 08 Feb 2012 13:50:01 +0000 Clementine 70389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>at first, we both wanted 3 but now we're thinking 2 is probably more reasonable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-68838 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 11:56:01 +0000 mamabolt 68838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Before I got pregnant, I said 3 or 4. But pregnancy has been hard on me, so although I'll probably do it again, I think 2 will be my limit. If we have a second girl, DH I think will want to try for one more to see if we get that boy...we'll cross that bridge when we get to it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-68807 Tue, 07 Feb 2012 11:23:08 +0000 Alivoo01 68807@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The hubby and I want 2 kids - 1 boy and 1 girl, if we're lucky. However, if our two kids are of the same sex, we'd try for a third. It stops after that though. LOL! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-67382 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 20:01:06 +0000 pastemoo 67382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This post was created 11 months ago? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-67255 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 16:10:29 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 67255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lilteacherbee we want to be finished having kids by the time I'm 30 too.

I'm 22 now (and we're about to start TTC) so we're hoping and praying that we'll be finished having kids by the time I'm 30. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-67191 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 12:42:35 +0000 BSB 67191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We plan to have 2 or 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-67061 Sat, 04 Feb 2012 07:04:08 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 67061@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both want four. Now that we know that we can't conceive on our own I doubt that is going to happen. I'm hoping to conceive multiples the first time around so we don't have to go through fertility treatments more than once. Neither of us want only one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-67043 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 23:33:28 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 67043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was thinking either 2 or 3. Hubby wanted 3 or 4... but after reading this sweet article, I'm leaning more towards 3... <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/glennon-melton/one-two-three_b_1243884.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.huffingtonpost.com/glennon-melton/one-two-three_b_1243884.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-66881 Fri, 03 Feb 2012 18:11:56 +0000 Mrs. Pink 66881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>gosh, my mind has changed so many times! As a teen, I always wanted 8. Yes, 8. Then when we got married, we thought maybe 4... and the longer it has taken us to conceive, that number has slowly dropped. Now, I think we just want 1, but if we ended up with 2, we'd be ok. No more then that though!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-13146 Thu, 10 Nov 2011 02:51:51 +0000 Dr. Pepper 13146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We want 2. Ideally one boy, one girl. However, if we get 2 of the same sex, we would consider trying for a 3rd. However, no more than 3! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-13107 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 23:33:43 +0000 Mrs. Pen 13107@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ MH.ALBANIA &amp; @ZUZU2AND11 yay! I love seeing women who want to have a big family :)</p> <p>For hubby and me it's always changing. When we got married I said 3 and hubby said 4. Then my number kept going up lol I would say no more than 8 ;) but I think only 4 biological and we would love to foster or adopt some kids later on.<br /> I am pregnant with our first though, so I keep an open mind, we'll see how this one goes ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-13078 Wed, 09 Nov 2011 22:01:23 +0000 Zuzu2and11 13078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ Penny Lane and @ MH.Albania</p> <p>We want a big family, too!

We want time to travel, have money for college, kids are expensive and we want ours to be well taken care of. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11992 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 20:58:14 +0000 Penny Lane 11992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MH.ALBANIA it's not just you! I want a BIG family :). I'm thinking at the moment at least 5. One of my good friends is one of 9, and her father is one of NINETEEN kids! They both love big families, and I'm excited about the idea of lots and lots of kids </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11991 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 20:57:57 +0000 Rescuemom10 11991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always wanted 3. Well when I got married not only did I get a wonderful Husband but an amazing daughter (now 8). So there is ONE for me. So I guess I will have two with DH and will have my three total! : ) We will see. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11889 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 18:29:36 +0000 L2sweetpea 11889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I only want 2 no matter what genders but my husband would like a 3rd if we got another girl...we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11848 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 17:18:45 +0000 cyneswith 11848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 is the starting number. If we want more, we'll adopt/do foster care. After #2, one of us is getting fixed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11722 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 14:37:37 +0000 mrsjyw 11722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ideally 3, 2 boys &amp; 1 girl., DH wants 4. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11716 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 14:32:53 +0000 plantains 11716@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanted 3 initially but I'm thinking two will be the better choice from a financial perspective. We'll see how I feel after this one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-children-do-you-plan-to-have/page/2#post-11676 Tue, 08 Nov 2011 14:08:12 +0000 LuLu Mom 11676@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I say two no matter the gender, my DH says if we get 2 girls, he would like to try for a boy. However in my mind, my DH is 1 of 3 boys, and I am 1 of 3 girls, so in my mind if we try for a 3rd in that situation we are destined for all the same gender. :) </p>
