Now I want one more, tops. My heart feels full, as someone else put it, already. I don't want to stay at home forever. I want to go back to work part time before too long. But I'd like to be pregnant again, and I want my daughter to have a sibling. So one more hopefully. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531975 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:18:49 +0000 Honeybee 531975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I always said 3, but now that we have one of each we might be done at 2. We're undecided, at this point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531965 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:16:10 +0000 Charm54 531965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm from a family of 4 girls - I want 4 kids. DH has one sister - he wants 2 kids. We've come to the agreement of 3 (actually, DH says I can have as many kids as I want until I need a mini-van :)</p> <p>In an ideal world we'd have a boy and two girls....I can't imagine not having at least one sister and want that for my daughter! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531935 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:06:01 +0000 Modern Daisy 531935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I both definitely agree we want more than 1 and I would love up to 3, but I know it's not up to me so I'll be happy with what i get :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531918 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:02:31 +0000 maybebaby 531918@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2-3. DH is one of 5 and originally wanted 4. I am one of 2 and have always wanted 2. We will see how #1 goes but I hope there will be at least one more and maybe 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531910 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:00:25 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 531910@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4 is our agreed upon number, although DH would probably be fine with 3 and I'm open to a 5th. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531909 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 15:00:25 +0000 KissMeCait 531909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want one, he wants two. We’ve agreed to get through the first one and discuss a possibility of a second but I’m pretty sure it’s not going to be something I’m interested in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531902 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:58:25 +0000 Arden 531902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've agreed on a minimum of three, no maximum (we'll just discuss after each addition if we want to be done or not). We may very well adopt some of those though - I don't know how many pregnancies I'll actually go through. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531893 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:56:23 +0000 spaniellove 531893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are both 100% in agreement about only wanting 1! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree/page/2#post-531881 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:50:46 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 531881@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want one. He wants two, but if we have three he will push for four! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531841 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:36:40 +0000 LuLu Mom 531841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are for sure having 2 and keep the "option" open for a 3rd. We both decided that we will make this decison before building our house so we have enough bedrooms for all kids. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531797 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:22:51 +0000 Mrs. Chalk 531797@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We waver between two and three. Three seems like it changes the equation a bit - we'd have to get a bigger car, kids would have to share rooms, etc. Plus the cost of daycare for three kids makes me panic. But at the same time, I've always thought it would be fun to have three little ones running around... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531782 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:17:00 +0000 Alivoo01 531782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: haha! At least your hubby is totally on board for more babies! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531781 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:16:53 +0000 BelugaBean 531781@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our plan was always that we wanted two, but that if we had two boys first, we'd try for a girl. Well, we had a girl first and for a while considered stopping at one. Now though, we both agree that we want two and then we'll stop. We both agreed to wait to try in a little more than a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531777 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:16:13 +0000 heffalump 531777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ideally..... 3. But due to health problems and financial reasons it might be 2. DH's ideal number is 2, but he is open to 3. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531774 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:15:16 +0000 yoursilverlining 531774@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're both agreed on just 1 with the very slim possibility of a second one in a few years. Every week we're like "still on board for just 1?" "yup" "yup" but then my husband backed out on the plan to get a vasectomy....so we'll see. Absolutely no more than 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531773 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:15:05 +0000 oliviaoblivia 531773@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both want four. DH is ready to try for number two. I'm only three weeks pp. He crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531760 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:11:13 +0000 Bao 531760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: That is what we are thinking :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531735 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 14:01:24 +0000 Smurfette 531735@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both say 2 is the limit. Granted we will see once this one is here, whether we will be up for another.

I'd like one of each and have my boy so if the next is a girl, we'll be done.

He grew up as one of 2, so that makes sense to him, and he's more driven by making sure we can afford the third; I grew up as one of 3 and want that for our kids, too, and figure we'll find a way to afford it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531650 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 13:34:58 +0000 hellocupcake 531650@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He is set on 2 but I told him he knew I wanted 4 from the start so we are probably going to meet in the middle and shoot for 3. (: </p> <p>Unless I can sneak out a 4th...just kidding (: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531648 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 13:34:41 +0000 rawrasaur 531648@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both agree two with the possibility of a third. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-do-you-want-does-your-so-agree#post-531618 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 13:23:34 +0000 banana 531618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both wanted two, even if both were the same gender.

Two for sure though! </p>
