See I think the same thing.Like oh wow when bubba gets out of high school I'll be 49 and we can have the time of our lives,but then the one half of me is yelling at the other half.You want a baby you want a baby.And I'm sitting here thinking maybe I'll just get a dog,but I hate dogs.well atleast lauren is getting some goldfish for christmas so i'll have that

Amanda I understand completely! I went through that too. I didn't give up the notion I wanted more until about a year ago.
You kiddos are still young though, mine are closer to adult age then they are kiddo age, kwim?
As much as I love my sons, I really would like some privacy. They still think nothing of yelling for mom as if they were 2 yos! I still have trouble taking a shower wiht out someone wanting to know where i am why I am there and what I am doing there. I just decided I do not want to go through this process again for another 18 years!

Well, if I survive this pregnancy 3 will be enough. I'll be 58 when the youngest graduates high school. "It was so nice of your grandparents to host the Open House"

I am done !!!!!!!
I have 5 .......

**~Sherry~** · 10-05-2002, 10:18 AM

I have 1... want 2.

**Mom23boys** · 10-05-2002, 11:39 AM

I have 3 and that is enough for me. I would have liked to have tried for a little girl, but am happy with the 3 boys.

I have four and just found out that I am pregnant with #5. I am really happy. My kids are pretty close in age and I am sure this will be the last one ....biologically. When my youngest gets a little older we might consider adoption. My due date for this one will be right around my 31st birthday. We might adopt older kids when our kids get older. It depends on the house we move to and the turns our lives take.Needless to say I want a big family.

Amy

Madison-7
Riley-5
Macy-3
Rhett-16 months
baby due around the first week of June

I have 3 and we're done. If our financial situation was such that I could have just stayed home forever raising kids (and bigger house) I definitely would have had 1 or 2 more. Our house is 2 bedroom, and I'm not getting younger, and DH is still digging basements for a living. I'm thrilled with my 3 girls.

**bamamomto4** · 10-05-2002, 10:04 PM

Amanda-I was like you when Katie was about 2..I wanted another and dh didn't.I kept on and on and after about 6 months...he agreed! Took me 6 more months to get pg!

There is such a huge gap between Ashley and Katie! It wasn't planned that way though.I had Ash at 16 and when she was bout 3 we started trying but couldn't get pg.Then when she was 9,I took Clomid (fertility drug) and the 1st month i got pg! If I knew all I had to do was take a pill,I would've done that years before and they would be closer in age. But I don't regret any choices we made

If you can afford another,I would keep at DH about it. I just thought if I didn't have another,I would always have regrets.
I'm glad Steve agreed! Jackson is my angel! My only boy and he's sooo diff than the girls were

He's a sweetie

I can just see myself when I'm old and my kids coming over for holidays with grankids

We're done though. I have to go through so much to get preg and I stay sick the ENTIRE 9 months!! My last month with Jackson,I could barely even walk....I guess him weighing 9#2 ozs didn't have anything to do with it

Anyways..for some reason tonight I can just ramble on forever LOL
Let us know what you decide.....Tell your dh we are standing behind you so he should just give in LOL!!!!

**seadream** · 10-07-2002, 07:42 AM

I always wanted 2 ---1 boy & 1 girl. But since we have been trying to get pregnant for a long time and are finally seeing a doctor about it we are hoping & praying for at least one.

**Michelle** · 10-26-2002, 10:16 PM

I have 2...believe me...I don't want any more! LOL I'm just starting to enjoy that they're getting older, and I'm getting some sort of a life back LOL

**homesteadmamma** · 10-26-2002, 10:34 PM

Well I had 3 and they were all teens when we adopted our youngest 3. I'll be 59 when our youngest is 18 and I don't mind it one little bit. If we would have had the finances, I had always wanted 12.
