just for fun

so i thought i'd throw it out there on a happy friday.

Calimama replied: We want more children and plan on having some. We got pregnant with Bella really easily so I'm hoping that this next baby will be the same way.

CantWait replied: Well I would really love to have one more child, but it certainly won't be with dh. He doesn't want anymore and our relationship isn't stable enough to withstand what we have now never mind adding anything else to the mix.

kit_kats_mom replied: DH got fixed after my health scare when Lauren was born. We'd love another but it just isn't in the cards for us. We have discussed the option of adoption or possibly fostering in the future but we haven't nailed down an exact date or anything.

boyohboyohboy replied: we are preg. now, but we do not intend to have anymore biological children. we hope to in the future be able to take in foster children.

lesliesmom replied: DH just got fixed so no more children for us. We were pretty much set after our first two and then Lindsay came along. so for us, three is enough (DH also has a daughter from his first marriage so that's four for him). At times I think of having another one (especially when I see newborns out and about) but I'm happy with the three (relatively well behaved) and don't want to tempt fate. And, although I'm not old (35), DH is 42 and he really doesn't want to worry about being around when the kids get older (his dad died at 60 so he worries abit over that).

Crystalina replied: My choice was not up there. I do not want any more children and if I were to get pg I would not be happy but what can you do? I would of course have the baby and love it but it would not be on my top list of things to do.

I am one of the women who wanted to be pg but hated being pg. I thought we may want another one until my break down last month when I thought I was pg. I had the vomiting, nausea and I could smell everything. I woke up none to happy and told dh to get out of bed because we had to talk. Thank God it was a false alarm but that little freak me out was enough to tell me that I was done. My kids are at a great age where I can start being "me" once in awhile and to tell you the truth I was dreading baby stuff in the house and toting a baby around everywhere. Not to mention we don't have an extra bedroom and I want to volunteer more time at Izabella's school next year while Evan is in pre-school. I felt a baby would take away from the two I already have. DH was a little shocked by my reaction that I may be pg and I guess he just assumed I'd be ok with it. No, I'm not so much ok with it.

my2monkeyboys replied: I don't know if we'll ever have another. I would do it now if DH were willing, but he isn't at all and I don't know that he ever will be. So, unless we have an "oops" (which I'd be thrilled over), I just don't see it happening. And, yes, that breaks my heart.
But... whada ya do?

A&A'smommy replied: we plan on having two more children (probably 3 or so years down the road) and once they are more grown up adopt a child within the states

3xsthefun replied: I'm pregnant now and this will be our last child. We plan for one of us to fixed after the baby is born. Because we really do not want to take a chance on me getting pregnant again. And to be honest I don't think my mental health can take it.

JadensMama05 replied: I just want one more, a little girl. Garred is fine with that. He's actually already brought up names but I say - NOT YET!! Jaden needs to be atleast 2 I think

MyBrownEyedBoy replied: Ditto to Marie. I'd love another, but my marriage isn't stable enough to add another child to the mix. We are working on that, but for now, the time simply isn't right.

MotherForever2043 replied: I am pg now, and this is going to be my last one. I just go through SO much when I'm pg and I just don't think I can take of 4 children by myself. This one was a total suprise.
