I did! My 2nd is now 5.5 months.

Yes, when my LO was 6 or so months old. DH isn't on board for #2 yet, though!
-
I did. DH didn't. Yet...
-
Yep, we were going to be one-bio & adopt more but plan for 2 bio & then foster to adopt once they are old enough to semi-understand what that means or what the process might look like.
-
Not one and done but I'm definitely two and through when I thought I'd gave 3-4 kids.
-
@Rubies: wow, I didn't know you wanted that many!
-
I'm still pregnant with #1 but at this point I feel like I could definitely be one and done. DH really wants at least two. We've agreed not to make that decision ahead of time, but just to start with one and see how we feel about having a second as time goes on -- but I really wouldn't be surprised if we both end up flipping our positions on it, haha. I guess we'll see!
-
@Andrea: Before I had LO I wanted 4. When I was pregnant with LO, I said 3. After I had LO I think I said we were done but really knew deep down we'd have a second. But that's it! No more!
-
@Rubies: aww, it progressively shrunk! i think it would have to be 4 in order to avoid having a messed up middle child and 4 is A LOT!!
-
When I was little I wanted four. Now seeing how expensive kids are we are two and through. Unless we win the lottery.
-
Other way around: always thought we wanted two, but now that we have DD we think we'd be quite content to be one and done. We'll revisit in a year.
-
Why do people think middle children are messed up? I'm a middle child and I'm perfectly fine.
-
I used to want three... Then realized how expensive kids are and leaned towards two. When LO was born the first couple of months were really tough for me. I had some baby blues/post partum anxiety and I just didn't think I could go through that again. But once she turned about four months we were in our groove and I was so much happier and now I have total baby fever (well.... I miss having a newborn, but I'm not actually ready to get pg again!). I have a feeling when my secon outgrows babyhood I'll probably be begging hubs for a third!
-
I always thought we were one and done. But now LO is 3.5 months old! And we might have a 3rd. We shall see!
-
Mr. Jacks was one and done. We have two children
-
@plantains: awe I am sorry! It was in jest. I am an only and everyone thinks singles are horrible, but it doesn't bother me. People can be messed up no matter what their birth order!
-
@NavyRN2012: Hmmm, maybe I'll change my mind about the 3rd, too ....
@Mrs. Jacks: Glad he changed his mind!
-
I think we are in the two and through camp, but my pregnancy, labor, and delivery were all so hard w LO I wouldn't mind being one and done, but DH does. He hated being an only child.
-
I was the opposite! I was up for 4-5 kids! Both DH and I came from big families and loved it.
But after not loving pregnancy, a traumatizing birth and a difficult adjust to parenthood, I am ok with 2. MAYBE 3. We'll see!
-
@hergreenapples: same!
I wanted 2 and DH wanted 4, after having DS I think we both are seriously considering 1 and done!!
-
We were never one and done, but we might be two and through. Even though our plan was to have 3. For now we're both leaning toward no more though.
-
@Mrs. Jacks; I was one and done. We have two kids.
-
@Andrea: what made you change your mind? i always thought two, but after having LO, who is almost 5 months old, i vacillate between one and done and just avoiding thinking about the whole subject altogether.
-
@edelweiss: Around 18 months, it dawned on me that DD was super fun and a lot easier! LOL. So I wasn't so afraid about going through the crazy baby stage again. I also felt like our family wasn't complete. I am an only child and DH has a small family, too. So I thought about that a lot and I started to really want DD to have a sibling. We don't live by our families so it's lonely. I really hope that my 2 girls can be a good support system for each other!
I really enjoy having 2 and I'm so glad I changed my mind. I also really like the age gap (2 years, 9 months) because DD can help me with her baby sis!
-
We always, always talked about being one and done. But now that DS is here I want another soo badly. I don't think it's going to happen but I had no clue how much I'd really, really love being a mom.
-
Dh & I both wanted 4 children. Then when I had DD, I took it down to two. I'm pretty sure we'll have 3. We'll officially decide after #2 is here in a couple of years.
-
@Andrea: don't mind me, just being sensitive for no reason!
