Anyone else having their last?  

post #1 of 26

We are done after this baby, anyone else? It's terrible, but I'm so looking forward to getting to get rid of some of this baby stuff once the last one is done with it!

Yes, this will probably be our last. We'll have 3. I'm so hoping for a girl as I have two boys and if hubby says we can try again for a girl I'll be all for it, but I doubt he will! LOL I grew up with four sisters, and that was too many, in my sibling opinion.

In all liklihood this will be my last. : Ugh, I can't bear the thought of that though. My dh insists that he is not having any more than 3 though.

Okay we had our last 14 years ago then we had our last 8 years ago then finally had our last 7 years ago. I think though this one will be our last since I am 36.

I'm pretty sure that this will be our last. In some ways, it makes me sad as I always wanted 4 kids. But on the other hand, my kids will all be really far apart in age (ds will be 11 and dd will be 5 when this baby is born) and it will be nice to move on from the 'baby' phase of our lives. I'm a little sad, also, because I feel really crappy so far this pregnancy and I felt fantastic with my other two! I'd like to be able to savour all of the changes that my body will most likely not be going through again, but that's hard when I feel pukey all of the time. Having this be the last sometimes, honestly, feels like a relief!

Sign me up! I am done after this! 4 is plenty for me. We plan on dh getting snipped after this one is born. My hat goes off to all the Mama's who have 5+ kids, but with having an autistic ds and 2 very high spirited little girls, I think my hands will be plenty full. It is nice to know that I am not alone in the last pregnancy catagory. I hope that I am able to really enjoy this one.

Yes, this will be our last. Although, we've been saying that since our 2nd was born, so we'll see how long that lasts!

We're planning on this being our last, so we'll have two. I grew up as one of four but we make up for the chaos I find comforting with 2 dogs and 3 cats.

This is my last pregnancy.

18 years I had my first ..... and I really didn't think I would still be doing this.

I love all of my children and am so happy that they have had the years between them .....but I'm done!

This will be baby #5 and I think I can confidently say this will be the last. I already think we are kind of nuts for having 5 I can't imagine 6

I've always wanted to have 2. DH said he was done after the 1st so I think 2 will be it for us!

Dh thinks maybe this one will be our last since it's #4.. I'm thinking maybe we will have 6.. hehe

No, not our last. I don't feel done yet. We are going to go for number 4..and That baby will probably be concieved in....hmmm..let me do the math here..July '08.
Thats if the economy stays stable and I haven't went insane. We'll see though.

With my last pregnancy I wasn't positive I'd have another, so I kept thinking 'what if this is the last time I get to experience, etc?' to prepare myself (and help make the decision). I find now though that I'm a lot less sentimental about the pregnancy the third go around, I really just want it to be done with!

Well, I don't really know. This may be our last, but dh is talking about #4 : I like spacing my kids out, so I can see wanting another in 4ish years. I'm only 29, so I feel like its too soon to say.
post #17 of 26
This will likely be our last. This is #3 (and our second together), and I assume we won't have any more, but never say never I guess!
post #18 of 26
This may be my last, but I said that after #4 and well, here we are again. But dh dosen't want to have any more babies born after he reaches a certain age, and he will be that age in 3 years. That does leave room for another one or two, but we really want to adopt and I am factoring that in.

This is our fifth and our last.

We always said 3, with the option of 4. When I was pg with #4 I went into it thinking it was my last. But it just didn't feel right at all. After he was born, we still struggled with the idea of "just one more!". I would do a headcount and be looking for the fifth one. I'd talk about the kids and realize I was adding in one that wasn't here. LOL

But this time, it feels right to be done. I think we'll all be here then. It's funny cause my first baby talked very early, and before he was even two he would tell me that there was five kids, holding up his hand.

This is going to be our last, its number 4 for me 5 for dh, dh was done after our 2nd, and i talked him into the last one and this one! so far this pregnancy has been rough with m/s and all that i am exhasted and now that 2 of the kids are in school i am enjoying it, i really wanted this baby i wouldn't feel done with out a 4th, but now that i am pregnant with this baby i feel like this is finally it, also that we really thought my 3 yr old was our last, i am just going to take what i can. i was very against dh getting snipped but after this baby comes i think that we will be doing exactly that.
