I am not sure about that right now. Right now four is good. I am having a hard time keeping up with all of them. LOL. I am not ruling out the possiblity of another one but I just don't think I could handle any more for a while.

For years, I have always just wanted two. Lately, I am having the urge to have another one.
We have been praying about it...
So if I get pregnant, it wouldn't bother me at all

I think I would like one more but I will have to convince my husband.  He thinks I am crazy since I stay home with them. But I just can't shake the want to have another child. I guess we will have to wait and see.

I "think" we will have one more and then that's it  Four keeps me pretty busy especially having the last two so close together. I want the youngest to be closer to 3 before we make a decision to have another baby or not. So I guess it depends on my mind frame then. But I honestly can't imagine NOT doing the whole pg and labor thing one more time. But I do figure I have to stop eventually right???

I've always thought I wanted 4. But I'm only pregnant with #2, so who knows how I will feel after this one!!! Dh is leaning more towards 2 or 3. If we did choose to have a third, it wouldn't be for a few years.

The proper answer I guess is as many as God gives us and that we can afford.
I'm just not sure His plan for us... it took us three years to conceive, then we had a m/c at 6w, then a stillbirth at 30w... I am 29 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby boy right now. It's been such a struggle to carry one healthy child to term, that I'm not sure anymore if my dream of 6-8 (YES I said 6-8!) children will come true anymore.
I would love, love, love to have at least 4 children.
We've waited so long for this little one, so we'll just take it a day at a time for awhile.

Same here! We probably won't go on birth control ever again (kind of a scary thought in the long run ) because NFP is definately the way for us. But we'd like as many kids as God gives us...be it only the one he just blessed us with, or 12 more.

I would like 4. When I met DH he wanted 2 and that was it, but I seem to have changed his mind. Right now we are due with our first - but we will see what God's plans are (since he blessed us with this one so unexpectedly - we weren't trying/weren't preventing).

There will be 3 coming out of me. I would like more but adoption would be the only way and I would love that. I want to do 1 adoption but ultimately I would like to adopt twins (or possibly triplets).

We will welcome as many babies as God blesses us with. I just had my frist baby 5 months ago at age 28 so I don't have a ton of years left but we would love to have a large family. We will just have to be patient and see what God has in store for our family.

We are not cut out for a "big" family lol. So 3 is our number! If we should want another after this we'll adopt.

It's kind of funny to see these replies from 2006 and see how many people are pregnant again or said they wanted more and are getting more.
We have two, and we'll either have 3 or 4 total.
