Hellobee Boards

We're planning on having the same number of kids that we grew up with. We're lucky that both myself and my husband grew up in a family of two children, so we're on the same page there. Obviously things might change as we start TTC and actually having kids, but that's the plan!

I wonder if it depends on where you were in that spectrum, whether you want to have the same number of not. Do you know which one that mom was out of the four kids? And where did you fall in your sibling order, Mr. Bee? Do you think that affected your decision to only want two?

We're on the plan of "2, maybe 3" right now. We'll play it by ear once we actually pop the first one out! Both of us come from families of 2.
My husband's sister (who was 7 years older) died (followed closely by his parents) and before his dad died, he told my husband that he wished they'd had another child so that my hubs wouldn't be alone. Which I think is very sweet and sad... I think my hubs sort of has that in mind with thinking about having 3.

yes, for me, i am. i was an only. and we're happy just having em. hubs is one of three boys and surprisingly he's happy with just one also.

Yup, we're on the 2 or 3 plan - I was one of 3 (and like the idea of 3 kids), while my husband was one of 2 (and wants 2 kids). I figure we'll see how it is after having 2 kids!

I am only child, and I definitely want 2+ (assuming everyone is happy/healthy/etc.). I do not care which gender.

My husband is 1 of 2 boys, and wants at least 2, preferrably both boys.

My husband and I both come from a family of three and right now we're both saying that we'll have either 2 or 3. So, who knows. We could potentially recreate it. I loved having 2 siblings, but obviously I don't know anything else.
