I know many people say one thing when they don’t have kids, and say another after they’ve had a few, so…
[name]How[/name] many kids did you want before you had kids?
[name]How[/name] many kids do you have now?
[name]Do[/name] you want more? [name]How[/name] many?
[name]Do[/name] you find yourself wanting more or fewer kids than originally planned? Why?
Anything to add?
Before I had any kids, I wanted at least 3 kids, maybe as many as 4.
After my first, I knew I wanted a second.
After my second, I knew I wanted a third.
I’m now pregnant with #3 and I’ll see how I feel after this one. 
Before we got pregnant, I wanted three or four. Part of me would love to have that many. However, when we got pregnant with DD, I suffered from a condition called Hyperemesis Gravidarum. This terrible condition has made me rethink all of our plans. We may have one more, but I’m not sure I can survive it a second time.
Before I got pregnant, I wasn’t very maternal and I didn’t want any children.
I’ve got two daughters, and I think we’ll probably have one more within the next 5 yrs. OH would love 4-5 children but I honestly don’t think that that’s doable for us.
I’d happily stop at the two we have but a third would be nice. We’d both really like a baby boy!
I always wanted to have four, three girls and a boy or four girls! I have two daughters now and although I would love to welcome another bundle of joy to our family, I don’t feel like that will happen within next four or five years.
I wanted to have two kids and although I planned to have two, I’m now a mother of three. My youngest was unplanned, but my husband and I are so happy to have her in our family and can’t imagine living without her. Right after my youngest was born, I wanted to have one more, but I don’t think I would be able to handle four kids now. I think age gap is important although it depends on people. The only reason I wanted to have four was because I thought my youngest would feel left out since my two older kids are six and five while she is only five months old. I think you don’t really know how many kids you want before you actually become a mother because you can never know a life as a mother before you become one.
[name]How[/name] many kids did you want before you had kids?
When I was a kid I said I wanted a dozen. HAHA! By the time I was ready for my family I wanted 5-6.
[name]How[/name] many kids do you have now?
Two. Boys.
[name]Do[/name] you want more? [name]How[/name] many?
I desperately want more. 5-6 total. Although, DH came to me a couple of weeks ago and said “Hey, I was thinking if we are in a good place financially after we have a few more kids that we could have up to, like, eight. What do you think?” I said he would be finding another woman to help him get that many. (Although, in my heart of hearts, I know that if I have enough energy I will do it.)
[name]Do[/name] you find yourself wanting more or fewer kids than originally planned? Why?
I want the same number I originally planned, because I have given it a lot of thought and am comfortable with it after having had two already. I have always known I wanted a large family. 
[name]How[/name] many kids did you want before you had kids? 4 but DH wanted 2
[name]How[/name] many kids do you have now? 3
[name]Do[/name] you want more? Yes
[name]How[/name] many? 1
[name]Do[/name] you find yourself wanting more or fewer kids than originally planned? Same Why? Originally we thought we would stop at 3 since DH wanted 2 and I wanted 4, but as I have aged I have had a sudden change of heart and really want complete my dream of 4.
Anything to add? Sometimes heath, pregnancy issues and money change your plans- even if they don’t change your mind!
[name]How[/name] many kids did you want before you had kids?
Before I got married, I wanted like five or six. I adored children and since I was a nanny over the summers of my college years to put myself through college I thought that I knew what I was getting into with a lot of children. But when my husband and I had our first serious children talk, we decided on four. And then during labor with our first son I was like “Nope. Not doing this again.” Obviously I did
[name]How[/name] many kids do you have now?
I have three boys ages eight, five, and three, and our first daughter is due in six days (yikes!).
[name]Do[/name] you want more? [name]How[/name] many?
I think right now my husband and I are content with our three boys and our daughter. I feel like our family is going to be complete with four kids. We have enough rooms in our house for each kid to have his or her own room, we all fit comfortably in our stylish minivan, we know that we can pay for all four kids’ college tuitions. Four is a good number for us.
But this pregnancy was so good and it makes me so sad sometimes to think that I’ll never be pregnant again, that I’ll never meet a new child again after this one. So maybe, maybe in a few years we might have another baby.
[name]Do[/name] you find yourself wanting more or fewer kids than originally planned? Why?
Right now, the number that we originally planned is good for us.
Before I was married, I wanted 3/4 kids. I grew up with 4 siblings, so I wanted that for my kids as well. After I was married, my hubby and I had settled on 2, with the possibility of a third. We want certain things for our children, and our family as a whole. Some of it comes down to money, but it’s not everything.
We currently have one daughter and a baby on the way (gender is a surprise!)
Now that we have one, and I’m currently pregnant, I think 2 might be it. I’m exhausted, and don’t really feel like I’m enjoying the pregnancy. So with 2 little ones running around, I just know know if I could do it a third time. However, we do plan to give ourselves at least a couple years before we make any decision about baby #3.
Interesting post! Thanks for asking :o
