@steph0524, girllllll I applaud you! My body is soooooo tired after just one lol

I wanted one right away 😂. Me and my husband agreed we wanted 4. 2 girls 2 boys. We have three girls so we changed it to 5 kids. 3 girls 2 boys. We had planned for them to be about 1.5-2 years apart in age and so far we’re on schedule 😂 but we’re saving up now to attempt to have twin boys in about 5 years

I’ve always wanted three. I told my husband his daughter (my stepdaughter) could count as my first but I still wanted to have two of my own.
It wasn’t until after my daughter turned two that I actually felt ready to start trying for another. Some days I wonder if I can handle another.

I was ready for another when ds was 2 months old. Lol. But then again my nephew was born then too. I wanted 4 before him, now id be content with 2, as long as i have a girl. Lol. If my next is a girl im done, if its a boy ill try one more time, then im done. Lol

After my first, I was immediately talking about baby number two. But I wasn’t physically and mentally ready to go through another pregnancy until he was about a year old.

I didn't want another one until after 3. Then I started wondering how I'd deal with adding another and how that would upset my daughter's world. If I hadn't had a cancer scare we would have waited at least another year to talk about it. Once the cancer scare happened though the idea of never having more pushed us into having a second child right away out of fear that we would lose the ability.

Before my son I wanted 3-4 kids. After I had my son I had baby fever moments, but intellectually knew I didn’t want the responsibility of a second...if that makes sense

I had always wanted 2-3. After DD was born, I was content with one. By the time she was 1-1/2 my memory of pregnancy, birth, and the newborn phase was all warm and fuzzy, and I wanted to give her a sibling. So here we are now 😂.

As soon as we found out we were having another girl, there was some gender disappointment from us both because we aren't sure at this point if we can handle a third to try for a boy lol, but I'm glad that my girls will be sisters. I've heard it's a special bond. Who knows how we will feel in a couple of years? Maybe we will be ready to try again.

I go back and forth about wanting one more and this just recently started for me

Mama that's me to a t. when I first had my daughter I was so excited and I thought I wanted three and then I had her and I said no that's it for the first 4 months. we scheduled my husband for a vasectomy and the closer the vasectomy got and the further along we were in getting the vasectomy done the more I wanted another baby. then all of the sudden boom I cancelled his appointment and I'm ready to have another baby so we're on the baby train 😁😁😁

@first_time_mom_in_ky, it’s tough! Definitely not something you can really plan too far ahead I’m learning 😂

@k_nc, I feel the same way! Like one day I think I would love for her to have a sister or brother. But other days I think SHOOOOO idk if I can do this newborn thing again!

I constantly go back and fourth. Before my son I wanted 3, after he was born I told my husband I never want another kid again, after a couple of months I wanted like 5 😂 now that I’m pregnant again I feel content with just 2 (especially if this one is a girl). Who knows though 🤷🏼‍♀️ I’m not going to put a number on it anymore, just waiting to see how many we have until our family feels complete 💙
