No kids now, no kids wanted anytime soon. I won't say I will never change my mind, but right now, no thanks. My husband are perfectly happy with our family the way it is. :lovesign

If we do decide we want kids, we will adopt.

I want 2, we have one. We have talked about adopting a third, but it just depends on the way things go...

He wanted 13 when we got married. We are saying 6 but something tells me that we will be done with the two that we have already.

He wanted 13 when we got married. Now we wanted 6 but I think that we'll be done with the two we'll have. We'll see though.

I will quote myself from the other thread...

I didn't vote in the poll though since you don't have an option for no kids. :dunno

Not sure how to answer the poll :dunno Between us we have 4 already, and we want one more together... So would my answer be 5 or 2? I already have one.

I think we agreed on two. But we are not ready for kids yet, we just want to have fun on our own for a little while. But when it does happen I will be very excited. It seems like so many of my friends are pregnant right now. I am excited for all of them! What joy!

1. And I've already got her, so I'm thrilled!

wife-n-mommy
10-02-2007, 12:47 PM
so... I would like 3 kids...we have 1 little girl as of now and I'm sooo ready for another one, but I have to convince my husband that it IS a good idea...LOL

Jennifer
10-02-2007, 12:47 PM
DH has two, we have none together yet, and we would like to have 4-6 together.

Jennifer
10-02-2007, 12:49 PM
Dh has two, we have none together yet, adn would love to have 4 to 6 together. But I think we will be lucky to have two.....

How many kids do you want?
also, how many do you have so far??

We will have 2 kids come February: one of each (boy & girl)....and I think that's all we'll have. We MIIIIGGHHHTTT want a 3rd 4-5 yrs from now, but that's a slim chance. Maybe we'll adopt the 3rd around that time.

I used to want 4-6 kids...That changed after having my first :lol I love her to death, but they take a lot of work as well as pregnancy being draining! :P

harrisonsdream
10-02-2007, 12:52 PM
i want 4 dh wants 2 so we'll probably have 2 and then get to make a decision to have more or adopt or something

ArmyWifey21

I want 3 or 4 kids

Dragonfly76
10-02-2007, 01:03 PM
We already have two and have been talking about maybe one or two more. Depends on where we are in life and how old I am when we finally decide.

BLBnJVB3
10-02-2007, 01:05 PM
I put 3. I'm undecided on the 4th. I know I don't want another right now but in a few years I might.

JulieM
10-02-2007, 01:07 PM
We wanted 2, we got 2, we're done!

Scarlett
10-02-2007, 01:12 PM
atleast 4, mabye more depending on $. but we are done having bio kids...the rest will be adopted...

The Megster
10-02-2007, 01:25 PM
I have 1 and DB has none. He wants us to have 5 together....I told him we'll work one at a time. I'm definitley game for one more at least.

AshleyReida
10-02-2007, 01:30 PM
I want 4-2 down and 2 to go. I came with 2 and DH wants 2 together so it works out perfectly!

Shaky
10-02-2007, 01:34 PM
1 or 2 but we don't have any kids yet so that might change. Who knows.

Donna
10-02-2007, 01:39 PM
I voted 1. That was all we wanted but we have 4 and I wouldnt change anything. Savannah was a pill baby, Gabe was a depo baby, Chris we tried for and Danica was a tubes tied baby. LOL

Jessica
10-02-2007, 01:39 PM
we have 2 together and he has one from a marriage before me(but his mom doesnt let us see him, plus he lives across the country). I want atleast 2 more. Dh says hes done but he said that after forst dd. He also told me that when he makes chief we can have another one. I guess with every promotion I get a baby.lol. Last dd was concieved a couple months after dh put on 1st.

We want just two now, have one and we'll have another sometime in '09. As for a third....haven't really decided.

Becca
10-02-2007, 02:08 PM
We really wanted 3, but it looks like we're going to stop at 2.
3 would be selfish. 2 is perfect. :) (L)

brentscrystal
10-02-2007, 02:10 PM
I gave birth to two, got married and gained one, and then had my last one. I am perfectly happy with my 4, but there are days that I wonder what it would be like to have a baby around again... (the 5th would have to be adopted because my parts are broken now!)

OMG, TAKE ME AWAY, PLEASE!!!! :giggle

Rileysmom
10-02-2007, 02:11 PM
I added an "I don't want kids option". :)

We don't have any yet.... not for a little while, but I want 4 and he wants 2 so we'll probably end up with 3! LOL!!!

I want one more. DH is on the fence and keeps changing his mind.

We wanted two, so were definitely done :)

Brandi
10-02-2007, 03:15 PM
We have three, we're hoping for one more. I actually wouldn't mind having 5 or 6, but my body can't handle all of those c-sections. So, we'll have one more, then I will get my tubes tied :(

usmc_wifey85
10-02-2007, 03:18 PM
We dont have any kids yet but I put down 2 although I would mind having up to 4 of them :)

Mandi
10-02-2007, 03:19 PM
We have one right now, but might try for another someday.

andreacn
10-02-2007, 03:22 PM
In the future id like 2 or..maybe 1.

instant_oatmeal
10-02-2007, 03:26 PM
I voted 2 but I'm thinking 2 or 3. Not quite sure.

michellelac
10-02-2007, 03:45 PM
I voted 2. We have 1 and I want 1 more but when she is like 3 years old. But we aren't talking baby talk til he gets home and is home for awhile.

Kat
10-02-2007, 03:52 PM
We want 3 or 4. We have 2 now:)

USNWIFE
10-02-2007, 04:07 PM
I put down 2, but I am not sure. Neither of us are close to being ready. He is 26 and I am 22....so hopefully our readiness will come soon!!

MontanaSweetie
10-02-2007, 04:17 PM
I personally would like to have 2 kids. We have 1 child, and DH got fixed, so we can't have anymore kids. It was a mutually agreed upon thing, but now I wish we would have had had 1 more child.

Kristen
10-02-2007, 04:23 PM
I don't know what I want. Dh wants several, but I think he'd be happy as long as he gets one.

I used to think I didn't want any. Then I changed my mind and started trying, and I feel like karma is kicking me in the butt for being so flippant about it before.

Since I'm diabetic, almost 30, and having no luck in the TTC department, I think I'll be grateful if I have one. Then we'll see what happens next.

Jenneh
10-02-2007, 04:32 PM
No kids. I don't like kids, never have, never will.
I can't say for sure that I'll never have any kids, but I'm 27 and so far I don't feel like having kids at all.

*~*Cori*~*
10-02-2007, 04:59 PM
I have one from a previous marriage and we have been trying to have our 1st together for over a year. I have PCOS and so its taking fertility meds to hopefully get us a miracle.
I would LOVE 3-4 kids but it is really going to depend on how far we have to go to get pregnant with just 1 more. I hope the Clomid will work and we don't need any more evasive procedures or medications that could make us have multiples if that were to happen we would just be done :P

Chadsgirl0922
10-02-2007, 05:08 PM
i don't want kids until i have a good job and a house..i want 4 but my DF wants 2 so will probally have 2

luvmycs2cti
10-02-2007, 05:21 PM
We have 1 mabye want 2. I dunno yet. were waiting till DH get done with school and we PCS agian to see what we think.

Like i have baby fever... And well they are totaly diff when they are your own but the baby i watch Im so glad he goes home every night!!

Ashnbri
10-02-2007, 05:21 PM
We have one...I put 2 because the is the least that I would really want..but I would love to have 3 or 4. But DH is unsure and only wants one so I have some convincing :thinking

Bex
10-02-2007, 05:25 PM
i had originally wanted 2...but he came with one, i came with one, and we have one together... so for us, 3 is perfect (L)

carol68134
10-02-2007, 05:28 PM
I have one already and only want one... but db wants a kid eventually and I am still pretty young so who knows, I might change my mind when I get older...

10-02-2007, 05:35 PM
I have 3 and thats it for me!

bellezzagoffa
10-02-2007, 05:41 PM
He wants two. I want one. We may not be able to have any, but we will see how that all goes in the future sometime...like when we are on the same continent!

(oh and neither of us have any yet)

I want 5. We have 3 right now.

Nickschic
10-02-2007, 06:33 PM
I would like 3 but DH says 2 is enough. We'll see what happens. We have one and one on the way.

familyof4
10-02-2007, 07:03 PM
I want 5 DH wants 4 so we will see. We have none right now :)

=Mrs.AiNokeA=
10-02-2007, 07:10 PM
Right now I would be fine with just 1... but later on it might be 2 but no more than that. :)

AirForceWife84
10-02-2007, 07:18 PM
I used to want 4 but I think now DH and I have decided on just 3 :boy:boy:girl. We don't have any yet so maybe we should get started. Lol.

PattersonGal
10-02-2007, 07:19 PM
I want 3...db says he definitely wants kids but he doesn't know how many...I guess we'll see ;)

footstepswife
10-02-2007, 07:50 PM
I wanted six; he wanted 1 or 2, we have four. I am fixed so I guess we are done. LOL

We have 2 I would ideally like 4`

Mommy2Bailey
10-02-2007, 08:12 PM
This will be my third and our 6th all together so we are done

Jen
10-02-2007, 08:18 PM
2 or 3

Cherrish
10-02-2007, 09:03 PM
I've got two...that's about as far ahead as I can think right now.

But I think I'd like to have 1 more.

valerie
10-02-2007, 09:06 PM
no kids now but we want 3

Michelle
10-02-2007, 09:21 PM
We have 2 and want one more.

KDMatthews
10-02-2007, 09:36 PM
We both want 2 for sure, but we're not decided if we'll have a third. No more than 3. We have one already and I'm preggo with #2

Bryanna
10-02-2007, 09:40 PM
i want four children and more specifically, i want a boy followed 18 months later by a girl and anytime after that i want twins of any sex.

DB wanted at least two but he is happy with my four children plan :)
who knows? we might even end up having more... we LOVE children.
we also want to adopt and/or be foster parents/grandparents.

sillygrl76
10-02-2007, 09:43 PM
I have one and DB has one. It would be nice if we had one together but we decided to not have any more. I am fine with that since the though of delivering another baby scares the crap out of me:dunno The first delivery scarred me for life:scared

aubrey
10-02-2007, 09:47 PM
Two, and I got 'em.

LuvnMySoldier
10-02-2007, 09:47 PM
I want 4. DB say's he wants 5

Del
10-02-2007, 10:02 PM
I don't want any. I think I feel the need to have one. And, ideally (with names and everything), I'd probably like more like four.

So, I'm sticking with the first one at the moment.

showgirl85
10-02-2007, 10:11 PM
I wanted one but I am thinking 2 or 3 now.

AmyandTim528
10-02-2007, 10:13 PM
We wanted 3 and we have 3.

Twink
10-02-2007, 10:14 PM
i want 3, he wants 2.

Im thinking I will compromise if he agrees to 2 and he lets me get a dog. (which will be just as much of a fight to win as it will be to get 3 kids) we'll see.

Dani
10-02-2007, 10:23 PM
DH wants 3-4, I want 2 so we are starting with 2 and going from there. We have our first on the way.

Astra
10-02-2007, 10:45 PM
we have none so far.
but we both want 3 eventually.

SezzySue
10-03-2007, 01:08 PM
I think 4. But I wll stop when I cant afford any more.

Amanda
10-03-2007, 04:37 PM
Db came into this with 3 girls we now have one together and when he's 2 or so we'll try for one more then we are done. I always wanted to give birth to 2 kids and with his 3 we'll be at 5 and that's great for me :wub

Dori
10-03-2007, 04:44 PM
I didn't want any, but now I have my one little troublemaker. As far as I'm concerned I'm done.

I'm sure I'll be happy if I have another, but it isn't in the plans and I'm doing all I can to prevent anymore surprises!

Aundi
10-03-2007, 05:08 PM
I really wanted to stop at 1......but we decided to have 2. Having 2 kids has been MORE than enough for me:hehe

*Sarah*
10-03-2007, 05:11 PM
I was completely happy with my three until i met dh and my kids got bigger now I want another one with him. Trying to convince him though is a whole nother matter...:arg

Callie
10-03-2007, 05:49 PM
I started out wanting 4, but dh wanted 2 and recently we have started discussing having 3. We only have 1 right now.

USMCSGTsGirl1239
10-03-2007, 05:54 PM
I grew up as an only child raised by my grandparents who both came from families of 10+. I want at least 5, probably more.... and DB wants as many as I'll let him have.. :lol

Not planning on starting any time too soon though, we both still have farther to get career wise to be able to do that.

Godders_Girl80
10-03-2007, 06:04 PM
DF and I would like to have 2 kids. Neither of us have any as yet. :yes

everlong11
10-03-2007, 06:15 PM
I voted 3, but wouldnt mind more or less :) as long as there is more than one so they can be friends and occupy each other from time to time
