How did you know when you were done having children?

I'm just curious how to make that decision. I have 2 wonderful little girls that are 5 and 20 months and I can't figure out if this is it or if I want more. My husband is open either way. Some days I want another baby and then others I feel like my family is complete. How did it happen for you?

Well I am a single mom of 3 boys and all 3 are birth control babies!!! I was positive I was finished as I am barely making ends meet now. Needless to say I am 6 months pregnant! my boyfriend had a vasectomy so I thought I was ok, guess not!!! I seriously thought about not keeping this child because of a finacial and mental point. I did decide to keep the baby and I am soooo glad I did, because it is a girl!!!
I know it will be so hard but I believe you can never be finacially ready for a child, so we will see what happens.
Oh, I do work full time for the army and have been enlisted for 12years so I do make good money but daycare seems to eat all my money!

Well congrats on the baby girl. I do believe you are right, you are never quite prepared financially. Good luck to you and your family. :)
