    No. We want a few more down the road. I'm only 24 so lots of years left and no rush - just waiting to see when feels right to expand our family past our current two kids.

    After this one (#2) we are done!

    I am pregnant with our third right now.

    There is a 2-3% chance that we would have a fourth in 5 plus years, but it's HIGHLY, highly unlikely.

    I'm pregnant with #2 and feeling pretty done. I'm going to be 32 when this one is born, so a third is still an option (though highly unlikely). It's really hard when both parents have to work outside the home to manage schedules, appointments, etc. and we don't even have to deal with sports and extracurriculars yet.

    I'm done having biological children, I have one and I'm good with that.

    We are 75% sure we would like to adopt 1-2 kids in 5+ years though.

    Nope! We 100% want at least one more bringing our total to three. Our limit is 4.

    Pregnant with #2 and we will be two and through as well.

    A big part being two is what we can manage in terms of energy, patience, finances and I am mid-30s already, DH late-30s.

    I'm not sure. DD is only 7 weeks and I get anxiety thinking about being pregnant, labor, and the first few weeks again. I think we probably will have one more but not for a while.

    Nope!

    Definitely done. I can't imagine going through the newborn phase again. I won't survive!

    Nope. We have two and feel like we have at least one, maybe two, more out there.

    No, at least one more, maybe a few.

    If this pregnancy is successful we will be done at two.

    Yup! Although we are open to adopting 5+ years from now but I'm not sure. I like the idea of sleeping through the night

    @luckypenny: oh that's exciting would you adopt an infant or older child?

    @Mrs. Pen: toddler? I wouldn't want then to be older than my oldest. I just can't imagine being done with kids! But PPD and the newborn stage almost killed me this last time

    Not sure. We have one and flip flop all the time on whether or not we want another. It is hard to tell what the right thing to do is for our family!

    @marionberry: you could always end up with yet another set of twins

    @plantains: Hence my concern over trying again. It would be just my luck.

    Currently up for discussion. I would like one more, my husband would be okay with just one. I will be very sad if we don't have one more.

    More than likely DH is like 98% sure we are done, I waiver, but definitely lean more on the I want more side. I told him when the oldest is 4(he'll be 3 in May), we are going to talk about it. I just feel like our family of 4 isn't 100% complete yet, but I would absolutely be happy if we stopped at the 2 we have.

    @marionberry: this is why I am getting my tubes tied as soon as these kiddos make their appearance!

    Im like 90% sure we're done with kids. We have 1. People tell me I'll get baby fever, but I just get more and more sure as she gets older that we're done. I just know we're not going to want to start over. I dont think our marriage would survive it.

    Id be totally open to fostering/adopting later though, maybe when C is middle school age. I've always wanted to foster/adopt school age and older kids. DH is skeptical though.

    I always thought I just want only 1 but now I have crazy baby fever.

    Currently pregnant, but assuming all goes well, we plan to be one and done. So this LO will be my last pregnancy! Fourth time's the charm.

    Nope. Currently pregnant with #2 and we're planning on 3.
