how many kids do you want to have?

I have three children. Two girls and a boy. I think I would want to have another son to occupy the son I have now. But he was just born 9 months ago so i think I will give it a few years before birthing another child

I've always thought that I would like three children. However sadly I don't know if I can have children. I am only 20, but am having problems already and have been told that it's unlikely that I will be able to, but that's not going to stop me trying!

My husband and I wanted to have a maximum of 4 children. But I already have 2 CS deliveries with our 2 daughters and my OB said that my uterus lining is thinning. So, maybe we can try for only one more after 5 years (that's the recommended spacing given by my OB to ensure full recovery from my previous CS).

As for me, i wanted to have a dozen children but that wont be possible now, so i guess 4 would be ideal, but as for my uterus concern i don't think if i can make it 4, well maybe, just wait how many will be given to us. We already have 1.

Halu heart4u, it's good for you and your boyfriend,talking and planning for the future.becoz financially,mentally and physically this is very important when committing in marriage and specially having kids.if you are prepared,whatever your decision if how many kids may you have,at least you will not worry becoz you can support them. me and my husband when we get married we don't plan for how many kids we have,(we married and i'm pregnant already at that time honestly speaking),for now we have two lovely,smart two boys, and we are contented for it we are not looking for another kid again like gurl,we are happy with our two boys.we talked that he will be the one to work for our financial needs,and i'm the one who will take care of our kids and house hold works. having kids for me is the happiest moment happen in my life.if you will have kids someday,you have an extra patience,do all your best to love them,serve them and care them..kids is the precious decoration in our house(home),without them home is not be completed,no one will be noisy,no one will do a mess hehe,they are our bestfriend,playmates,and our medicines during emotional pains and tiredness. thanks GOD BLESS

I was also discussing the number of children we wanna have with my girlfriend and we came to the conclusion that 3 kids is enough. It would be perfect for us and also i think it will be better for them ... a better balance and harmony. Please mylot community, if you want to have children, have more than one, growing up alone is awful. Speaking from my own experience.

Before I had kids I only wanted to have one. However, I wound up having 2. Happy mylotting!

Hi. heart4u. I want to have another one, this should be my final one. I have three kids already now. Many people think that I shouldn't have anymore. I am married and all of my kids are from the same man. I have been married for nine years now. I have always wanted to have two kids, but God saw fit and I only have three now. How many kids a person may have is not up to other outside sources, it should be yours and the father's decision.

I love children and would have wanted as much as 5 but God gave me just one. Well that is God's will and I can never question that. He always knows what is the best for me and God has good reasons for this. Now I am enjoying my life even more because while children adds happiness, I learned that enjoying what I have and being contented with what I have adds more happiness.

I just wanted to have to kids as well- one girl and one boy. However, I now have two kids and both are boys. I'm still happy but have no plans yet of having another baby. We might try for the third one to have a girl but if the baby is still a boy it's enough for me. I just want to have maximum of 3 kids now. It's not that practical nowadays to have more than 3 kids. I just want to make sure that my hubby and I would be able to give them all their needs and that they can all go to their chosen school and course. Have a nice day! :0

Hello heart4u, nice to meet you. First of all Congratulations that both of you have decided to tie the knot. Best of luck to both of you. I also will love to have four kids. Just having company and lots of fun. Yeah, 4 is sort of my ideal. We were three and we liked it too. I think 2-4 is the perfect range for every parent. Most of the parents want to have 2-4 kids.

i would like to have three, now that am ready and getting married soon oh i hope god will blessed me with three kids

I originally wanted 2 kids only. A boy and a girl. Right now, I already have 2, both boys though. Life is quite hard nowadays and the more the kids you have, the tighter the budget you'll have. I would want to have a girl though. Perhaps, in a few years time, we'll try to have another 1 and hopefully, it would be a girl this time. If it turns out to be another boy already, that would be it i guess (ideally). 3 kids is already enough for me.

I would love just to have 1 or 2 because when a babysit kids are a pain but they maybe not that bad as they seem it just depends Wouldn't want a whole brady bunch haha

when i was a young girl i didn't want to have any. When i was 17 i had my son. I said oh this feeling is so great i want 10. LOL but all in all i had 3 and they are the most amazing children.

I had only two kids, one boy and one girl.NO one can guarantee big family bring happiness.For me two is enough, happiness in the family gain it depends how you teach and bring up your kids in future.Basically two is just enough so your able to take care of them and give or afford all their needs.

How many children some one have depend on capacity to take care and feed them. Two are idle but plz. don't distinguish between boy or girl treat them equal

It is depend on how many children you take care and feed. One boy and one girl are Ideal. But don't increase your family in want of boy. If you have two girls or boy both are enough.

I want two children and if possible a twin. If God will give 1 that's fine. IF none, its okey too. Wish I will have one or 2....You are already 5 years with your bf? Better get marred before your 7 years come. God bless

i am married for years now but don't have baby yet. my husband and i just want to have two (2) kids. having a baby entails so much responsibility and in this point, parents should be accountable for their child's welfare. although, my husband and i are both working, i don't think we can afford to have many children since we are thinking that our financial resources should be enough or more than enough to provide our child with all the things that he needs such as food, shelter, clothing, education, etc.in planning to have children, the question, "How many children can we, as parents, afford to raise well?", is always a major concern.
