I have four kids but my oldest lives with her grandparents. I do not plan to have more. How about you? How many kids do you have? Do you plan on having any more?

I have three kids, a 20 yo girl who is married and in the USAF, and two boys age 12 and 15. I am 46 yo and cringe at the thought of starting out another baby at this age. Thankfully, I had that possibity taken care of after my younger son was born. I am hoping to be able to help start out some grandchildren someday, though.

I have three children, My son would have been 19 in November, my daughter just turned 15 last Sunday, and I have a daughter who is 7 months old. No, I do not plan on having anymore, lets just say my last child was all the surprise I needed after 14 years LOL.

I have three kids. 10, 8, and 2. I cannot have anymore. A part of me wishes I could have another, but another part doesn't. I am very happy with what I got.

I also have four children, 3 boys and a girl, I cannot have anymore now as I was extremely ill during my last pregnancy and nearly lost my baby. It was a hard time. I think if I had been healthy and not had the problems I did then I may just have had one more! I am a glutton for punishment I guess.

I have 3 children. boy aged 6, girl aged 4 and another boy aged 22 months. The eldest is actually my step son but as ive around him since he was 8 months I kind of class him as my son. My partner and I would like one more child. We want to wait untill the youngest is in school, roughly 2 years away then we may start trying for another.

I dont have any kids. I'm in a serious relationship and we don't plan on having any. I think my cat is enough of a kid for me. We've talked about it and thought it out and decided that having kids isn't for us-- we'd much rather spoil our neices and friends kids.

We had 3 kids...at the time it was good but hectic..as well as being very costly!! They were all very loved and wanted. But on reflection I do feel that the 3 was enough to cope with.

I already have four, all aged eight and under. I'm getting ready to have another one later this year too. I have no idea if this will be the last one or not. I'd actually love to have a whole houseful of kidlets running around. Oh wait. I do already. lol They're just so much fun and rewarding to have. I've been very blessed with what I've been given so far. I always tease if I'd have known how much fun they were, I would have started having kids much sooner so I could have a whole lot more of them. :P

We have two children...Our daughter is 6 and our son is 4....I do not think we want anymore....The two we have are a handful as it is...I think we just want to enjoy them as they grow and then have "our time" once they are older.... Even though my son is only four and looking at one more year until Kindergarden - I am noticing I am looking forward to that few hours a day he will be with friends...so I can't imagine having another one...lol

I have a 13 year old daughter and a 19 month old son. I would love to have another baby, but I have no more room in my house. My son took my spare room, so it's getting tight. Kids are expensive too, and I am a SAHM (stay at home mom). I wish I had one more baby though, so my son has someone to play with.

I just got married last year. I don't have a kid of my own. I am 43 years old and yes, I want to have my own kid. I don't think I would like to have more than 1 at my age but multiple birth is common in my family. A twins will be ok but, I don't wish for it. And I don't know if it is safe for me to have a kid at all at my age. I have 3 step-children though.
