    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:

    LOL Awesome. I was offering to sell my three for free the other day, too. Gotta love back-to-school attitudes and ADHD in my house. Would never, either. Oh the joys of being a mom. :)

    My husband and I had 3, then they all got attached to people so we then had 6. Then they all had children of their own so now at Christmas we have 11. So how many you have remember THEY MULTIPLY!!!!

    If I didn't have to work (I'm the sole bread winner) AND be the one to get pregnant AND nurse AND get up at night . . . I'd have at least 6-9 cherubs (maybe more). As it is, I have three boys (17, 12, and 6) and definately would love it if I had more, but that's not in the cards as I'm 47 and started too late. If I was Queen, I'd adopt a sibling pair of sisters, but husband refuses. We've had several arguments about it. The funny thing is that all three of my boys would really like a sister or two. My oldest son wanted us to have 7 kids total. He's mad at us for stopping at three. But husband stays home with the kids and has put his foot down. Argh!

    So I say, go for it!

    I have 2 girls with my ex wife. I'm not debating on if I should get snipped or not. I love my girls deeply and I don't think I need more children but what if I find someone new that loves me and wants to have a baby with me? I just don't know.
