Is this your 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc?  

post #1 of 39
Thread Starter 
Just curious I think...Wondering how many kiddos everyone has. This will be our third which I'm beyond excited about, I've always wanted three kids and I'm so happy that I'm seeing this come true. So, how many is this for you? Did you always want this many? How big to you imagine your family when you see a complete picture in your head?

This is our first and we're hoping to have three with a one year gap in between.

This is our second and DD will be 34 months when this one is born.

This will be our 4th God willing. I always wanted 5 but I didn't want to have anymore after I turn 28 so looks like this will be our last. That is why I am secretly hoping for twins lol. I will be 27 by the time I pop out this little angel and then I think I am going to throw in the towel and get an IUD.

This is our 2nd and will be our last. For the longest time we didn't even know if would have any kids, but I turned 29 and I wanted a baby-now. Then when DD was born DH was like well next time...bla, bla, bla...and here we are. We wanted a 3 year gap and that's what we'll have. We are done after this.

This is our second. I didn't get started until I was 27, so I'm not sure how many I will be able to have, but I'd love to have a huge family. I grew up with six sisters and a brother, and my husband has five siblings. I always wanted to beat my mother and have 9, but I'm not sure if I have time to do that. Maybe I will have to pray for twins and triplets, or adopt a few.

This is our first. We hope to have four. I'll be 30 in May so we'll see. Twins would be neat

baby # 3 for us. And no, I didn't plan on 3 children. This is a complete surprise baby for us! A pleasant surprise no doubt but I'm over 40 and didn't expect it at all. Thought it was early menopause.

It's gonna be like I'm starting all over again. My children have all managed to come 6-7 years apart when born. I will have a 14 y old, 7 y old and a newborn later this year. It looks like we're trying to start a trend, but we aren't.

This is our second and probably last. DS will be 27 months or so when this one arrives, which is a little younger than I originally would have wanted, but I'm getting too old (for my own preference) to wait much longer.

This will be our second. I am another that always wanted a big family. I am the youngest of 8. I didn't really have a number in my head - just big , maybe 7, 8, or 9...I don't know. My dh is only one of two, but he'd like a big family too. I am 29 though and will be almost 30 when this one is born, so I don't know how many we will have of our own - maybe 3 or 4. After that, I think I'd like to be a foster parent and do foster to adopt. So we will see...

This will be baby number 5 for us. We never imagined that we would have this many and after the third baby we said we were done, but then decided to have number 4. After number 4 we said we were done, but then decided to have number 5. I think this will be it for us, though, because we are running out of room in our house and don't want to have to move again. Kids are a lot of work but so much fun, too. Our house is full of love and that is how we like it.

This is our first. Until last year, we hadn't planned on having any children. This may be our only - although I could see having one more. But ask me that again a year from now, when I actually have a baby

this is our 1st (i'm hoping for 2 so maybe this will be twins)!
post #16 of 39
This will be baby number 4 , I am fairly certain that this will be the last one.
post #17 of 39
This will be our third pregnancy and hopefully our 1st baby. My husband has always said that he would have 2 and then get snipped. Which is fine with me, because I don't know if I could go through the stress too many times wondering if each pregnancy is going to be a success or not! If we decide we want more, we will definitely adopt because we both think that there are way to many children in this world that need good families.

Second baby, my first is 3. I want at least one more after this. I always thought 4 was the perfect number, my husband thinks that 2 is. I'm willing to compromise, I think, and take the average, but he sometimes acts like he isn't! But he'd better watch out, or I'll have twins or something.
post #19 of 39
This will be our second - I am so excited! DD will almost be 22months when he/she is born.
post #20 of 39
This is our 3rd. DD#1 will be nearly 5 and DD#2 will be about 28mos when this little blessing is born.
