I have 4 kids. We're probably done even though both me and my husband would love to try for another boy (we have 3 girls and a boy). But all of them were c-sections and the last one was pretty rough on me. My doctor didn't say I couldn't have another baby but after the pain I was in the last couple of months--not sure I want to go through it again.
I always wanted a big family when I as a kid. Six kids was always what I wanted. I don't know why. I am the oldest of 2. But my mom was the 3rd youngest of 11. I loved having so many cousins growing up. I have cousins that are the same age as my parents and second cousins that are older then me, lol. Our family reunions were always so much fun.

We have been blessed with four children. he ages are 5,4, and 2 year old twins. I love having a large family, it is comforting to me to know that they will always have each other. We get lots of looks when we are out and about with the kids. I think one reason is because of the twins and another is because they are so close in age. I have had many people tell they think it is wonderful to see people with large families. I think large families are great and I hope you are able to expand yor family. Enjoy your family!!

i think you should put a full stop here because it will hard after this to give equal attention to all the kids some might just get depressed and then that will rid your mind and then you will post another silly topic on which we will have to reply.maybe you should now go in for family planning rather than growing it.

i am sorry but all of my children get the same attention. I love all of them the same. There is this one family who have 16 children and they all love each other and they are loved. They are a great family. You dont tell me that I should stop having kids. you dont know me or my family at all. I can handle all my kids just fine just because you cant doesnt mean you have the right to tell me to stop.

I am glad that you shared with me. I really love big families. I only have one sister and always wanted more sisters and brothers. I have 10 cousins though. People do look weird at me because I am only 24 with 4 children and I look about 16. But I dont care. I want a big family.

I only have two girls, but we always wanted 5. I have no idea why we picked an odd number, but both of us said we wanted 5 kids some day! Then after our youngest was born, she had a lot of health problems and I had to quit my job to stay home with her. We had tons of bills and ran into some financial problems and decided that financially we couldn't afford any more kids... so we stopped at two.
Our girls are now 16 and 13 and there's no way I'd want any more now! I'm too old! lol!
