I was an only child and wouldn't want my LO to miss out on some of the experiences I think I did. hilsy85 on "If you could only have 1 kid or 3, which would you choose?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-only-have-1-kid-or-3-which-would-you-choose/page/2#post-164823 Mon, 21 May 2012 19:49:50 +0000 hilsy85 164823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 3 for sure...I really don't want an only child.

I'm one of three and it was so fun growing up. It was a nightmare for my mom sometimes, but now she says it was absolutely worth it and I agree :) banana on "If you could only have 1 kid or 3, which would you choose?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-only-have-1-kid-or-3-which-would-you-choose#post-164730 Mon, 21 May 2012 17:55:46 +0000 banana 164730@https://boards.hellobee.com/ That's a hard one. I'd say 3. My husband is an only child and he was really lonely growing up. Although 3 would be really tough, I'd love to have a big family. I'm sticking with 2 for us though!

I'm a big proponent of sibling love.

I was an only child and don't know what I'm "missing" by never having a sibling.

Like @babyboecksmom said, we would struggle with being pulled in three directions. Also, because we're a little older, having more than one is unlikely. I have a great relationship with my sibling and I'll feel badly that my kid won't have that, but she'll have cousins really close in age and distance. I hope they'll all be good friends.

Didn't think it was crazy until I had one. LOL! But if it were between 1 and 3 it would be 3. I told my husband that if we were to have an accident it would be a happy accident. :) But we are done! Two is enough!

I loved having 4 siblings. And I definitely have a better understanding of how to raise multiple children than just one. heffalump on "If you could only have 1 kid or 3, which would you choose?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-only-have-1-kid-or-3-which-would-you-choose#post-163760 Sun, 20 May 2012 08:02:09 +0000 heffalump 163760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 3.

Although I like having siblings, I just don't know if I could handle being pulled in 3 different directions all the time. littlebug on "If you could only have 1 kid or 3, which would you choose?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-only-have-1-kid-or-3-which-would-you-choose#post-163751 Sun, 20 May 2012 07:42:39 +0000 littlebug 163751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Probably 1. We always said 2, but I'm already starting to lean towards the 1-and-done camp. We couldn't possibly afford 3 kids, anyway.

We probably fall into the "one and done" camp, and three would just be too many for us.

I know I'll miss feeling the baby kick--I am preparing myself for that. The rest of it--guess you'll have to ask me in 3 weeks so I can look back and laugh at myself. :P loveisstrange on "If you could only have 1 kid or 3, which would you choose?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-could-only-have-1-kid-or-3-which-would-you-choose#post-163707 Sun, 20 May 2012 03:42:23 +0000 loveisstrange 163707@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @pastemoo: Just wait. I was a horrible, swollen, grumpy, miserable pregnant woman and by the time I was 2-3 weeks pp, I missed being pregnant.
