Unless I have another boy, then I might try again for a girl :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654429 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:08:26 +0000 pui 654429@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want up to 5. At least 3. I'm thinking 4 is realistic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654425 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:07:45 +0000 KissMeCait 654425@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just one. My husband wants two but we'll have to see about that. I'm fairly certain that after he see's how much work one is, he'll be all set. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654412 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:05:45 +0000 Mrsbells 654412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started out wanting 3 but now that I have been through pregnancy and mothering and infant, I think maybe 2 is fine </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654410 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:05:40 +0000 Springtime 654410@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want 3, DH wants two. two boys at that :( I want a girl! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654406 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:04:49 +0000 holdonforonemoreday 654406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Three. I have two, but really want a third in a year or so. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654394 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 11:02:53 +0000 crabbabs 654394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always said 0 or 4 - and if I had four, I wanted two boys and two girls, so every child could have a brother and a sister. </p> <p>We aren't trying, and won't for a little bit - so we will see what happens. I know things don't always happen the way you want them to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654343 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:48:51 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 654343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two, maybe three. My DH wants three or more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654335 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:46:14 +0000 Bookish 654335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Probably just one! DH says he's worried we might have another girl, and he'd be WAY out numbered lol!! Our main reason for having 1 is finances; there is no way we could afford 2 kids in day care so there won't be even any thoughts of 2nd baby for 5 years...by then, I don't think I'll want another! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654327 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:45:06 +0000 LazyLightning 654327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One. This is awful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654323 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:44:39 +0000 Charm54 654323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it was up to me, 4. I have 3 sisters and loved growing up in a big family. DH was one of 2 and only wants 2. So we are settling for 3 :) </p> <p>He told me I could have as many as I wanted until we needed a mini van, lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654299 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:40:12 +0000 lilteacherbee 654299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As of right now, we are thinking 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654263 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:32:30 +0000 Alivoo01 654263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One of each so two, but if we double up, we'll try for a third. That's it though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654180 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:07:46 +0000 Honeybee 654180@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we're done with two. We're leaving our options open for the (distant) future if we change our minds, but right now we feel pretty complete with just one girl and one boy. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654178 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:06:54 +0000 Boheme 654178@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought I wanted three, but pregnancy has not been kind to my body. If the next one is a girl, we are D-O-N-E :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654176 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:06:16 +0000 lovehoneybee 654176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Either 1 or 2, but 2 is my limit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654173 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:05:33 +0000 Mrs. Pen 654173@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're not sure :) we're taking it one child, one year at a time. I'm happy with one right now but I know eventually I hope for a girl. I think I want three. But that number is bound to increase or decrease depending on hormones, financial situation, where we live, etc! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654172 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:05:26 +0000 plantains 654172@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2...I think. I am waiting until LO hits the toddler phase to decide if I have it in me to do it all again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654168 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:04:23 +0000 stargal 654168@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>four :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654166 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:03:14 +0000 mamabolt 654166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not sure! We know we want at least 2, and will reevaluate after we have our second if we want to keep going. I know if number 2 is another girl DH is going to want to try for a boy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654164 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:02:14 +0000 MrsH 654164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654160 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 10:00:54 +0000 sslm 654160@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We want 3 right now, but considering we have 0 right now that might change!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654152 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:58:10 +0000 MrsTiz 654152@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two is my limit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654150 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:57:48 +0000 mrsjyw 654150@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: you have to have 3! go for the boy!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654149 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:57:32 +0000 mrsjyw 654149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>three! but told dh he had to give me an option to change my mind if future lo is a girl! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want#post-654147 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:56:53 +0000 autumnlove 654147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would say 2 right now but my answer will probably change to 3 when I start to forget how much I dislike being pregnant during the 3rd trimester! </p>
