Two seems to be his max. I secretly wish for twins sometimes but I'm also starting to feel like I could be pretty satisfied with two little ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1170245 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 01:18:01 +0000 jill_a55 1170245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my DH seriously wants 10, he only has two siblings but is from a huge family. I want 3-4 and I think we will end on my end of the spectrum :wink:<br /> @stine_ciro: Mine wants his own soccer team too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1170234 Thu, 24 Oct 2013 01:05:04 +0000 lemondrop 1170234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We both want 3, but we'll take a few years off in between #2 and #3 so we don't have all 3 in college at once! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169982 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 20:45:37 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1169982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH jokes that he wants 8 so we can have our own soccer team! He is one of 8 and grew up with lots of cousins around and I am one of 4. I would like to have 3-4, both bio and adopted, so we will probably do 3 and see how we feel after that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169964 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 20:34:44 +0000 bhbee 1169964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH wants to stop at 2 for sure. mostly driven by financials I think, and fear of zone defense. he was an only child, not an unhappy one, so probably could have been happy with 1 but I want siblings. I currently think about having 3 but know it may never happen, due to DH's preference and our TTC issues. don't think gender is a huge factor, LO is a girl and DH is happy to be a girl dad I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169916 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 20:09:40 +0000 stargal 1169916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169721 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 19:00:26 +0000 yin 1169721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Initially DH wanted 2, and I wanted 3. Then we actually started a family, and I'm very content with having 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169718 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 18:59:30 +0000 artsyfartsy 1169718@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to really talk him into conceiving this one, our first. I think if I said, "DH, I think I want to be one and done." He would be totally fine with it.</p> <p>But I want 4 or more. Lol I think he will let me have as many children as I want (within reason) but he will need some persuading each time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169626 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 18:09:53 +0000 chopsuey 1169626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169620 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 18:05:02 +0000 sarac 1169620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think he'd happily have ten. If I weren't infertile, I can see him loving a big, huge family. As it is, I think we'll be done with two, if we can manage the second one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169615 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 17:59:32 +0000 Rubies 1169615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH wants more but bc we've been blessed with two healthy kids, we are stopping now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169575 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 17:35:50 +0000 sandy 1169575@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 with the option of 3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169495 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:51:55 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 1169495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two with no doubt... If it was up to me, we'd negotiate about a third... Bit he is very firm about it and I am fine with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169481 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:44:01 +0000 Mrs. Train 1169481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have four and I don't think DH can even begin to fathom more kids. I would like to adopt again but not anytime soon. I don't know if that will actually happen. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169449 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:33:03 +0000 banana 1169449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2! He's pretty firm on that number. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169439 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 16:29:59 +0000 Ra 1169439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>0! I want 2, so LO was a compromise. I still secretly hope he will change his mind. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169054 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 14:15:20 +0000 GrapeCrush 1169054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He only wants 2 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1169011 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 14:08:40 +0000 Cherrybee 1169011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He wants 2. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want/page/2#post-1168968 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:53:16 +0000 Elderberrygin 1168968@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH was always leaning toward one and done. He really liked being an only child. I wanted two, but after the colicky newborn phase he's firmly in the one camp and I'm happy to go along with that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168953 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:46:42 +0000 MsLipGloss 1168953@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>1. We're considering a second (if one of us decided that we really wanted a second child, the other would readily agree). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168951 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:45:57 +0000 SweetMamaM 1168951@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2. We were both originally open to three but after experiencing first trimester, we're happy for just two. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168945 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:43:23 +0000 yoursilverlining 1168945@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just 1. He was/is a very happy only, and we both have individual interests that we don't want to exchange for a large number of kids. I bet I could talk him into a second if I really wanted one, which is the only reason he didn't get a vacectomy right after LO's birth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168939 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:40:30 +0000 JessKas 1168939@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2-3, same as me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168931 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:39:04 +0000 MrsF 1168931@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH wants 4. I'm willing to consider 3. He grew up with 4 and I grew up with 3, so I guess that's what we're comfortable with. </p> <p>We have one so far :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168929 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:38:28 +0000 coopsmama 1168929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He wants 4 or 5 but we'll just take them one at a time until our family feels complete so whether that means 2 or 5 we'll see! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168926 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:37:57 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1168926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He wants 4 or 5! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-many-kids-does-your-dh-want#post-1168922 Wed, 23 Oct 2013 13:36:11 +0000 Koolbreeze 1168922@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2! </p>
