Did you really want the amount of children you have?

Question

I wanted one, my partner wanted the second.

It turns out she is my little princess lol.

Answer 1

i always wanted two and i have two, but when my son is about 18 mths, i know i am going to miss the baby days, so who knows!!

Answer 2

I always wanted 2 children, and i have 2 children now.

I want to be steralised now, as i know i dont want anymore.

Answer 3

I haven't had kids yet (I'm 19) and I only want one or two. My fiancee says you should never have more kids than you have hands, lol. I feel with the unsustainable growth of the world's population it would be irresponsible of me to have more than two, besides I don't think I'd want a big family anyway.

Answer 4

I really didn't think about it as a teen. I knew I would like SOME children , but there was never a number.

Then I met my hubby and we both decided that we would love a large family.

We have three children so far and would love another two.

Answer 5

When I was a teen I didn't want any children when I was older, although I was very good with kids. My choices changed as an adult though, and we currently have 1 boy and 1 girl. Hopefully another on the way! I am one of 7 myself, and at the age of 24 I already have 4 nieces and 5 nephews, with more on the way. So part of a large family anyway!

Answer 6

We never wanted any children and then my husband's Brother and his wife after 15 years of trying and couldn't get pregnant adopted from Russia and then my husband got the bug and then I did and we had one. We only wanted one little girl and that is what we got. He got fixed shortly after because of the difficult pregnancy and early birth.

Answer 7

I have 2 and always wanted 3. But my partner really doesn't want any more so i guess we will have to wait and see.

Answer 8

I wanted to have one child of my own, then adopt as many as the government would let me. I ended up having 3 kids and adopting as many as I could. But I wouldn't change any of my kids for the world.

Answer 9

i always wanted two. i have a 2 yr old daughter and am currently overdue with my 2nd

Answer 10

when i was very young i wanted none, then when i had my son i said thats it. I never wanted another child and was 100% certain i wouldnt change my mind. When my son was blooming 15 and growing into a young man himself etc i went and had another 3 lol. Just goes to show you never know whats round the corner.

Answer 11

Well we always wanted two children and was so blessed to have a boy and girl twins first pregnancy so two is enough now we don't want anymore x

Answer 12

I have one 4 year old and one on the way due in 5 weeks!

and honestly i didnt want ANY kids!!

i went through high school / 6th form being as intersted in kids as i was brick walls! it just didnt bother me at all!

I was more interested in partying and having fun! I moved from Germany with the military to the UK and my life consisted of non stop parties, work, alcohol and more parties! when i got pregnant my entire social life came crashing down around me! i was absolutely mortified!

The further i got into my pregnancy the more excited i became at the prospect of becoming a parent, but i was gutted! out of our little social group me and my partner were the first ones to get serious and have a child! we were already engaged but had never discussed having kids, it just wasnt something that even crossed our minds!

now tho my son is 4 and he is the centre of my universe! i cannot imagine life without him, and we are having another one in a few weeks and im so excited about meeting him. thats it tho, we are done after this one and just to make sure, hubby is having the old snip once this one is born.

Very interesting question, thanks for asking it:D

Answer 13

Yep.  I wanted the first one.  I wanted the second one....and then I wanted another cat, so I rescued a kitten.

And then my DH got a vasectomy.  

(And then my 17 yo cat died.  :(  )

I'll rescue another dog next.

Two kids is perfect for our family with one pound puppy, one rescue kitty and another pound puppy when school starts.

Answer 14

well we have one and i always knew i wanted at lest 2, wasn't sure if i wanted 3 but was still contemplating it... then i got pregnant with twins.... guess i get my 3 :)

Answer 15

I wanted none growing up. Actually couldn't think of anything worse than being a parent, back then.

Now I couldn't think of anything better. ;)

I have 5 boys, whom I adore. Husband wants about 20 - I don't think so. We settled on 5 a few years ago, since then we adopted our eldest. However, some days I'd like another, some days I don't.

I really am happy with the 5 I have, but I think 1 more will complete out little (uh large) family.

Answer 16

No, I have 2 and really wanted 3. But due to complications both times, 2 is it. I'm very thankful for the two though.

Answer 17

I've got 2 boys and am planning on having a 3rd baby. My husband's got 2 other kids which means he'll have 5!

Answer 18

it doesnt matter how many children u have as long as u can support them

Answer 19
