How did you know when your family was complete?

Question

My partner and I are lucky enough to have an almost 4yr old little girl and a 1yr old little boy 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 and now we're trying to decide if our family is complete or if we'd like one more..
How did you know your family was complete??

Answer

Our income will dictate that we will be done at 2. Because we can’t afford to have 2 kids in daycare at once. And by the time it would be time for a third, I’m pretty sure I’ll be done wanting another.

Answer

I have a 13 year old, twins that are 9 and a one year old. I also have a 13 year old and ten year old step daughters. All of them are girls. My husband and I have one child together and she was our try for a boy. WE ARE DONE. Lol we could afford another, but I’m not driving a mini bus. 😂 After having Paislee I knew we were done and I’m a little sad because I love children (obviously) and the baby/toddler stage.

Answer

It’s such a struggle for us! We have 2 older boys (7&9) and I always  knew I wanted another, now we have a 1 year old boy as well... throughout my whole pregnancy with him I was sure I was done, especially after his traumatic birth I thought I knew I was done. But now experiencing having a baby/toddler again it makes me really want another. I’d love him to have a sibling to bond with close to his age like his brothers. But I’m stuck on the fence. We have room we have the $$ but I don’t know if I could physically and mentally keep up with 4 kids 😳

Answer

I have a 3 year old boy and a 1 year old girl. I've always said I would have 2 kids because I don't want my husband and I to be outnumbered. I'm also not sure I want to go through the baby stage again. I love babies, but I also love sleep. Plus, kids are a lot of work. My husband helps, but I still do a lot of the work as the primary caregiver. My age factors into it as well. I'm 35, so if we were going to have another one we would want to do it sooner rather than later since my husband and I aren't getting any younger, but at this point I'm not ready for another one. We have been blessed with a boy and a girl, and I'm happy with our family.

Answer

I don't think i want to go through the baby phase again. It's sooo hard. I have a 3 yo girl and 1 yo boy, 23 months apart. We want to be able to travel and do more activities. It's too hard to do those things with a baby, for us, i know some people think babies are easier but not me.

Answer

We're in the same boat! We've been blessed with two girls (3yo and 1yo), and seeing their amazing relationship now definitely makes us want a third. I always said that if we had a third I don't think I could manage work as well (I work 1hr away from childcare/home). As selfish as it sounds giving my corporate career away is a big call for me. I also have severe endometriosis and my obstetrician advised me to have all of our children before my next surgery as it's risky, so we need to make the decision sooner rather than later 😬

Answer

I have a 14m old baby girl and we have just agreed to start trying for another baby 😍
