How many kids do you have? How many do you want? Is there a certain spacing your are wanting to achieve?

I have 2 and a step daughter. I want at least one more, maybe two, depending on how my next pregnancy goes. DH says he only wants one more, but he's very easy to sway... Ideally, I wanted all of my kids to be 2 years apart, but DH deployed right after Jillian turned a year old and didn't come back until after she was 2. Then we moved from LA to GA and started TTC again and I had a miscarriage shortly after so that put plans on hold for a little while, but now we have Lucy! Hopefully we will start TTC again in August.

I have 4 kids right now. I was married and had my first 3 with that father. I was done with the 3. Then I met my BF now and we wanted to have kids together. I only wanted 1 more. Now I am debating 1 more but if I do have one more that is it for me 5 is more than enough and financial we are tight now so 1 more maybe

Only have 1 and we want at least 1 more, but probably have 2 more. I want my kids to be about 3 years apart. We plan to start talking about TTC again after G's 2nd birthday.

We have 5 and would like to have 1 more. The sooner the better but my body doesn't seem to be cooperating right now.

We have two and will probably have one more. There are two years between Mason & Myles and it was perfect for us - so we will probably aim for around that again.

We have two and I would really love one more. My DH thinks we are done though so he will take some conviencing. My two are almost 4 years apart and that seems to be a great age difference for us. If we have another one it won't be for another two years or so.

We have 2 and are also 100% done...

Emmie & Jackson are 22 months apart... We would have liked a few more years in between but our ages said otherwise... I was 37 when I delivered Jackson.

But we are good with 2... that is more than enough for us

We have 2 and we are finished. They are about 2 1/2 years apart and it seems like good spacing.

This is my 6th and IM DONE! My first two were 2yrs apart, my second two were 3yrs apart, and my third set of two are going to be a little over 1yr apart.....I will have experienced all three different age gaps, and I like ending on a even number.....not to mention Im 40, lol.... My oldest will be 19yrs older than my youngest.......when my youngest go's to college, I will be retiring and my oldest will be entering middle age himself.....now how weird is that?

I have one but I would love 3 or 4. Like Amy, that depends on a lot of things! I would like #2 before Jay starts primary school so I have 4 years!

Lori, since you've had kids with different spacing I'm interested to hear if you preferred one spacing over another. Was one easier than another? I'd love to hear your experience on it!!

We have one. We're totally torn, I could envision a happy life with just Celia but it also seems so final. Just taking it slow for now. We're interested in adopting also.

My boys are almost 3 years apart and then there is 2 years, 4 months between my younger boy and Teresa.

The spacing between the boys is a little more than we had planned on, but hey, what can ya do?

I'm feeling more and more complete (and busy) each day with all the activities!
