I would say it would depend on what you guys can afford. Being pregnant is not a good time to move, as you can't lift heavy boxes or help move furniture. Just have a savings fund for a bigger house, and move when you can pay for it without taking away from your children. For now, 3 stories seem big enough.
I would agree that the closer the family is in proximity, the closer your kids will be together growing up. The bigger the house, the more you will have to clean too. Lots of stuff to think about.

A house that is 3 stories seems adequate to me for a family with 5 children. Are the children not sharing rooms? This is a good experience to grow up with. I shared a room with two sisters and loved it. We would talk every night and be there for each other.
Sometimes a house is so big that it starts to feel cold and the members of a family can actually become distant.
I think you guys are probably doing ok. As you can already see from people's answers, Americans really freak out when you mention the words "big family" and start accusing you of contributing to the so-called population explosion, even though the birth rate in our country is like 1.5 children and consistently dropping.
As an American that believes in TRUE freedom I support your decision to raise a family as you see fit.

3 storeys but how many bedrooms? If there is enough do not move.5 kids is big on the finances but to add a new house unnecessarily would be a huge financial drain

If you can both afford it why not? The kids will enjoy the room and you will have a better quality of life! Make your home a pleasurable place to be so you enjoy the place you spend your lives in!

It doesn't matter the size of the house. It matters if the children have a home they feel safe and cozy in.
Congrats on your family. Always love your husband.

Yep, go for a old factory plant and you guys can produce then as much as you like.
