How did you decide how many kids to have?

For those of you with one child and only plan on having one child, what made you decide that? I’m going back-and-forth on if I want a second one or not, but I don’t wanna regret it in the long run if I don’t. Run by me what helped your family decide.

Finances and stability werent the greatest, then after sons dad and i split i knew i didnt ever want to deal with baby daddy drama again.

Ended up having a suprise pregnancy 13 yrs later and it was the best choice i ever made, although having a teenager and a toddler is a looooot

We decided to be done having kids once we had that complete feeling. I always knew I wanted 3 kids. We had 2 kids back to back and waited to even consider a third. But after having a miscarriage with a third, we had an emptiness still. My third baby is now 8 months old and I know in my heart I have all the babies I was meant to have. There’s no way to describe it aside from feeling empty.

I wanted 2 but was only able to have one. Fortunately, my sister was 6 months when I found out I was pregnant. We both had girls so they’re close like sisters.:heart:

It was simple for me. My mom passed when I was 24. Family never reached out to check on us. All I had were my siblings. I knew when I had one, I would definitely have another. If something ever happen to me or to their dad, I wanted to make sure they always had someone there for them. I knew I didn’t want more than two for a very long time.

You’ll know when you’re done. If you’re still on the fence, I wouldn’t make any permanent choices. Get a long term birth control in the meantime.

I always wanted 4. I had one, then twins, then didn’t want to chance THAT again and stopped at 3 :sweat_smile:
