If money wasn't a issue, and other things in this world, how many kids would you like to have? Me personally I would love to have 4. I have 2 boys now, but from 2 c-sections i can only have 1 more child.

I think that id like to have 3 maybe 4 if i thought id be able to give them all enough attention. I grew up with 4 sisters and 2 brothers so i think it was hard for my parents to give us all the attention we needed. Also money was tight so I don't think id ever want that many lol.

Three would be my number. I come from a big family ( I am the oldest of 6) and I dont want my children fighting for my attention so three would be all that I could handle.

Including my step daughters, I would like 4 or 5. I've always wanted a big family. I loved having a big family growing up and I would like my children to be able to experience the same things I was privileged enough to experience growing up.

I'd love to have 4 or 5, honestly I'd adopt some too... I would figure out a way to care for as many kids as I can have, but since money really is an option, we're probably more likely to have 2.

Well we have four now (we both had two from previous marriages)
I would LOVE four more. Real world.... I am trying for two more before I get too old. One would be fine at this point though!

We've agreed that 2 is perfect...but secretly, I want 3. My DH has 2 siblings and they are so close. I have one brother-4 yrs younger....we aren't close at all. At this point in the game, I'd be happy with one...

Ideally I would love to have at least two. But I’m 33 now and my mom went into menopause at 34. So as it is being 10 cycles so far of trying DR is rushing through this process to make sure I can have one.
Maybe I'll be blessed with twins...........

We want 5 or 6, with one or two being adopted. I have 2 siblings, but DF comes from a larger family with two brothers and three step brothers. We have always liked the idea of a larger family, so if money were no option, that's what we would go for. If money were no option, then we would probably even go for many more!

I always thought two was enough, so much that i had a tubal ligation 9 1/2 years ago.
This June I had a tubal ligation reversal and we are so excited about trying for a new baby

I would love 4 kids, we just have to get things rolling, this first one is a long time in the making!!. My Mum is one of 10 (the youngest) so I have literally hundreds of cousins and 2nd cousins, and we are a blended family of 7, ranging from 29 (me) to 22 (my littlest sister) so I love kids, and OH is the eldest of 5. I know money is an option, but we will tighten belts and try our hardest!!
