maybe you want 0. maybe you want 19.

i have two. i go back and forth between wanting 5 and 7 (i don't know why 6 doesn't cut it; *odd*). i'd love a set of twins.

you?

    I have two boys. While I'd love to have a girl, the two of them keep me very busy. Two are enough for me!

    for now 0 but someday it'd be nice to have somewhere between 5-7 if my finances and relationship/marriage can manage it.

    zero. Not a fan of kids for more then 3 hours. Everybody always says, "When they are yours it will be different." I always say, "I'm not taking that chance for 18 years if it's not" I know kids are kids for life, but you can legally kick them out at 18. hahaha

    I would LOVE 19, but I'd be very happy with 7-12. Whatever God wants to give me!!!! I <3 kids!

    Replace yourself, replace your partner, and one for the country! So 3....

    I come from a big family and want my kids to have the same - so I'll probably have more than 3 if I can (money wise, sanity wise, and health wise) I'll also keep trying if I have all boys or all girls so I can have some of both. The next ten years for me, in an ideal world, will be spent making babies, and raising them. I'm so 1950s...

    I have 2, ever since I was little though I always pictured 7. I don't have issues gettting pregnant but I have issues staying pregnant so if all my pregnancies had been succesful, I'd have 6 kids...so we'll see what happens :laugh: But I can honestly say, unless I win the lottery sometime soon, 3 is enough for us.

    At LEAST one. Hopefully a girl, but whatever I have I will be happy.

    I like odd numbers so we have 3. Since the last two were twins, our family is complete!

    P.S. They are all boys!

    Only my 2. I can't imagine having more, I personally wouldn't want more.

    Since i can remember ive always wanted three. Preferrably two boys, one girl. I have a 2.5 yr old little girl. She does drive me up the wall on most days, ok everyday but i still want atleast one more. When i find a good man/father that is.

    One.

    I have two boys, six years apart, currently 17 and 23. I love them dearly, but have zero tolerance for the spats. They've haven't talked to each other for nearly two years. Sad.

    I have four and that's plenty for me. Today I kept threatening to reduce that number but I wouldn't really. ;) (I can say that now that it's bedtime!)

    I have 3 now. They are 20, 8, and 5. Being that we adopted this sibling set, I would like to have 1-2 biological kids. God-willing and weight-losing!

    I swore up and down I wanted none. And then I had one and decided two would be good. Then I got baby fever and wanted one more. And yep.... 3 is enough. I am truly outnumbered now. :laugh:
