We aren't sure if we are having a third. We want to decide by the end of this year but the decision hasn't really become clear yet. Our oldest will be 3 in May, our second is 3 months. I'll be 35 this summer....so if we do have a third it will be soonish. Gah, I can't imagine being pregnant and having a newborn again though.
Are you done having kids?

Nope! #2 is baking and we'll probably try for a 3rd next spring/summer! Whaaaaat?!

I'm pretty sure. LO2 is almost 1 and not planning on any more. I hope I don't change my mind! I'm 34.

@winniebee: you have plenty of time... Don't let 35 intimidate you!
We are officially done! The adoption house is closed... I don't think there is a single scenario that could make us change are minds barring an unthinkable happening to a sibling or close relative.

Not sure. We would like a third but our second is only 11 months old so mentally I can't think about another but I am 36 and my husband is 41 so we are old and feel the pressure. Plus we are feeling more and more like it's difficult to keep up with the kids but we don't want to have any regrets either. Decisions decisions............

@Mrs. Jacks: 35 doesn't really scare me! It's more about moving on to the next stage of life. Ie, having a life again! Babies are adorable but hard! And mine hate sleep!

Undecided. We have the intention of 3, but are enjoying these two so much! We'll see in a couple more years.

We just had our first and def want another one, but not sure if we want a 2 or 3 year gap

Undecided still. I just can't get over having to deal with pregnancy and those first 6 months of babyhood again. It's so rough and I'm so tired with just one 3 year old.

Bummed about it, but most likely yes! 1 yr old and 2 year old and life is awesome and full.

@winniebee: Hopefully we are (knock on wood that this pregnancy "takes" and everything is fine!!).

We were on the fence but now are totally on board with having baby #3 (just not anytime soon 
)

@winniebee: I'm in the same boat
At my age, sleepless nights really hurt! It's definitely the primary deterrent to more, though we will also be excited to travel and have school aged kids.
And four is just insanity ! (I grew up as 1 of 4).

Nope, we're currently trying for #2, but that'll be the last

Nope. Although the thought of a newborn and a toddler scares the heck out of me, we will be trying for #2 late summer/early fall. We will likely be done after that!

We have a 12 month old. We will have one more for sure (I don't know when!) and I'm 99% sure that we'll be 2 and through.

I don't want to be done, but DH does. For now we are going to talk about it later.

Yes, we are almost certainly done for a million reasons, but sometimes I think a third would be awesome. Instead, I think we'll probably just adopt alllll the dogs in the future.

Nope. Just had #1 in January and DH told our postpartum team they'd see us in 2016. While I seriously doubt that's true (we checked out of the hospitalon the third day of 2015, for crying out loud), we do want at least one more.

I would love one more but my husband is 100% done and I am not going to push him. So most probably yes. Hoping I feel more done once she is here.

After this one debuts in June, we're done. We're two and through. This pregnancy feels way tougher than the last one. I don't want to do the pregnancy thing again. I'm 35. I don't want to be pregnant at 37 or later.

Most likely we're done after these twins are born but we won't make the official decision for a few years. Four would be our max though, so only the potential of ever one more.
wonderful cherry / 21504 posts
No, we plan on one more. Prob ttc early fall- which seems so soon even though c will be two by then!!
