For the most part. We agreed to three. I added that i kinda wanted 4, but three sounded good. I know have shown him that 4 doesn't mean 6, so he's ok with 4. We are now happily trying for that fourth child.

yes we have agreed on having UP TO 2 children. i am 17 weeks pregnant now. if this child is a girl we are done (we both want a girl). if we have a boy we will try one more time.
we agree on the number but not on the timing exactly... but i'm 34 and he's 38... so i think we need to have a second child RIGHT AWAY if we are going to have 2... he thinks we should wait a couple of years. I'm going to let the doctor take over on this one though... what ever the doctor says is best i'm sure will be the best solution (because age IS a factor here).

nicely marriage is all approximately compromise and speaking, unselfishness, solidarity and shared objectives etc.... what number babies you compromise to have is a huge deal. of direction understand that till now you have babies you SELDOM if ever somewhat understand what you're transforming into to be your self into much less sense waiting for parenthood, suitable? till your husband has had a vasectomy there is mostly a raffle he could desire to alter his ideas. yet perhaps he won't and if he does not then you certainly could desire to easily be grateful which you have 2 attractive healthy babies and could sooner or later love & appreciate grandchildren. as quickly as we've been lst married my husband concept he wanted 5-6 childrens! I wasn't even specific i wanted ONE! Marrying at age 30 if we've been gonna have childrens we would have liked to start in the present day and that i had 4 - growth growth growth in a row and then I placed on the brakes with the aid of fact I felt & knew emotionally i could not cope with extra! My husband became into devastated initially. NOW 21 years later he's SO delighted that i ended us from having extra. we like the 4 we've extra desirable than something - yet childrens are a not undemanding row to hoe and being the acceptable parent and significant different you may nicely be with those you're blessed to have is definitely the main needed concern once you harm it down! perhaps you will success out and have TWINS this next time! HA : ) sturdy success and merely take it a step, a toddler, a 2nd, an adventure, a transport, a minute at a time and make all of them the acceptable you may extremely of hectic & residing on what could desire to be or not be and what you may not administration or substitute. As a guy, father and bread winner the pressures & stresses on HIM are lots distinctive than what you sense as a spouse & mom - i don't think of we may even start to appreciate their attitude in many approaches. have faith - you on no account be attentive to how he will sense as quickly as#2 comes alongside..

I'm not married, but in a very serious relationship I had in the past that was heading towards marriage, we did not agree at all. He wanted tons of kids (and basically already had names picked out for all of them - and no, I didn't like the names either), and I only wanted 1 or 2.
I still do not see myself ever having a lot of children.

My husband already had a child when we met and he would have liked one or two more. However as I love children, I would have liked as many as possible! Maybe 6 kids and some foster children. However we did not let it affect our relationship.
We have two very special but difficult boys. One has autism and the other ODD. There is no way in hell we would go again.
So I guess the moral of the story is don't count your chickens before they've hatched!

No. He only wants 2...I want 2 or 3. If we have one boy and one girl, I probably wouldn't want to go for 3. But, if I have 2 children of the same sex, I would want to try at least once more to see if I could get the opposite sex. If I ended up with 3 of the same sex, that's fine...I don't want anymore than 3 children...but it would be nice to be able to experience the girly fun of having a daughter(s) and being able to experience all the boyish fun of having a son(s)!

Pretty much. Before we had kids, I said I wanted one. (I come from a family of 9 kids). Hubby wanted 5 (he has 1 sister and lots of cousins). We have 3 and I'm not having anymore. He teases me a lot that he could still go out and have a couple more. Jokingly, of course.

no we dont.
i want to have two but my hubby is satisfied with our daughter.
he wants to adopt.
but i am against it as i dont think i am ready to do that.
adopting is not a joke. you cant just decide to adopt a baby without being sure yourself.
the most pathetic part, after having had this talk, i had 2 miscarraiges.
now my hubby chides me that if we had adopted a year or two back we would have a grown up baby.
