re: Who else is DONE having kids???

i wish i could be satisfied and be done but i want 3-4 more kids...i have 4 bio and 3 step kids (they live with us 24/7) so 7 in the house 24/7
i want to be done at 27 but i cant have 3-4 more in 2yrs...fml..

but i seriously have a problem i am addicted to pregnancy and newbs...im ill i tell ya  

My husband and I go back and forth between being done and wanting another one. We love having Payton and sometimes we say she is the only one we want but then we say we want another one. I have horrible baby fever right now though.

Quoting M♥B:" Well, i'm not sure but I know that i'm done for a long time and maybe even forever. DH wants a boy but I don't really want 3 kids."

I would have loved 2 girls. I'm sure once my son is older I'll think boys are just as awesome, but he's just a little one and so I don't really know if boys are different at all than girls.

He's done. I want one more. But IDK what the future holds. Maybe fostering?

Quoting Angie Mother of Boys:" He's done. I want one more. But IDK what the future holds. Maybe fostering? "

We have discussed adopting in the future. It's not that I don't want more babies, it's that I don't want more pregnancies, I have pretty bad depression sometimes and pregnancy makes it SO bad I'm an ineffective mom.

I'm done, haha. I have my son & he's all I want honestly. I won't be devastated if we accidentally end up having another, but for right now, I'm done.  

I want one more. Just not for a few years. SO is 35, I just turned 24 last week, so that plays a huge factor. SO isnt going to want a newborn when he hits 40 I'm sure, so that limits us. He has 2 from a previous marriage (10 and 13), I have 2 from a previous marriage (almost 3 and 15 months) and now we are having this one in June. Ideally though (and he agrees) we would like one more together. We will see how I feel when this one is born haha

oh and i forgot to add DH says hes done bahahahah stupid DH
im not... 
he doesnt want to be an old grandpa and still having kids..hes 37 and his oldest is soon to be 18 :O so he quite possibly could be a grandpa and have kids...grossssss. lol

Got my tubes tied after an unexpected pregnancy. I'm done.

And I have a boy and a girl

Ya, age would play a big factor. I always thought I'd be done at 30. But I'm 25 and ready, and happy. And I always think, when I'm 40, my kids will be largely independent for self care. 15 & 17 and I'll be able to go on spontaneous dates again and that just sounds so refreshing.

im 21, my husband is 44. He has two from a previous relationship, (one of each) and we have two boys together who are 22 months and 7 weeks. I had my tubes tied after my c section! I come from a family of 7 girls and one boy, i know i dont want that many! We (hubby and I) both come from big families and want to be able to give our kids good one on one time and afford them the things we didnt have growing up in large families

See, I want more pregnancies and more babies. But, my kids have risk for genetic problems that we didn't know were genetic until my second one was one and then we got pregnant again. If the risk wasn't so damn high I think he'd be on board with another. And. I feel like for me to WANT one so bad and risk another child having developmental problems is so frigging selfish. The thing that makes me have that inkling of maybe one more is that if we had a girl the risk would be so very low- it's not really a risk. If that makes sense. But, seeing how we already have 3 boys, with my luck we'd end up with another. So I'm so damn close to just saying go get a vasectomy. but it's so permanent. I wish it were an easy decision.

They told my husband that he had about 3-5 years where it could most likely be reversed, and then after that the chances became much lower as time went on, so...vasectomies aren't all bad.

He says he's going to hurry up and get one before I start getting baby fever again, lol.

We were actually just talking about that...when he is 40 and I'm 29 all our kids will be: 18, 15, 8, 6 1/2 and 5...all in school. We will be able to actually sleep haha. However, I think I'm slightly addicted to pregnancy and babies and I cant imagine this one being my last. So its really back and forth in my head at times. SO is up for either. I said we will wait a little bit and see how we feel. But if we wait longer than say 3 years it'll just be too late and too big of a gap. Im just not sure. But sitting here right now I say yes I want one more. All my kids haven an 18 month age gap and I wouldnt mind doing that again--then we would still have them all in school at kind of the same time. Ehh. lol.
