Do you “just know” when your family is complete? When you’ve finished having kids?

Question

Pregnant with 2nd.  And I can’t help feeling like I’m unsure if I’ll be finished after this one 🤣. Even though everyone keeps telling me “two is enough” and I know it probably is, i just feel like a third might creep up on me lol

Answer

No. We have one. I think I'd like another, but idk. We can't have any more, though, because child care costs more than our mortgage.

Answer

When my wallet screams “No More!!”

Answer

I've been "done" twice now and my husband and I keep changing our minds. So when anyone asks if this baby is the last, I tell them he"s already the third last baby so who knows! 🤦🏼‍♀️😆

Answer

We said 3 when we started talking about kids, and was still set on 3 my whole 2nd pregnancy. However, after our second boy arrived this year (he’s 4 months old now) we have both felt our family is complete. Strangely I thought I’d be determined to try one more time for a girl, but our family just feels “right”, so we are done! ☺️

Answer

Our situation is hard. Lol we each had a son coming into the relationship, but we knew we wanted kids together as well so we have a 5 month old together. 3 is a lot but we want another together so I think we’re stopping at 4. Lol we aren’t for sure yet if we’re going to have another or not, but we definitely aren’t sure that we’re done.

Answer

I have zero idea. All my life I was like 2 is enough, I’m done after 2. Then I had my second and I have zero idea what I want. Some days 2 is more than enough and I’m totally done. Other days a 3rd sounds great and I get totally excited at the prospect of having another. We’ve decided we’re waiting a few years and seeing how we feel.

Answer

I had my second two and a half months ago. My first was super hard baby and then I thought I didn’t want anymore but I knew my husband really did. We agreed to wait until our son was around three to try for a second but I got pregnant by surprise when our son was ten months old. Now that we’ve had our second I keep thinking about a third but I know it would be easier with two. So I’m very undecided.

Answer

We have a 10 and 7 year old.
We thought we were content. But we started to feel like we had room to love another baby.
So here we are starting over! I’m 13 weeks pregnant tomorrow. My kids will be 11 and 8 by the time baby is born. Hahaah big gap, but I’m so excited!

Answer

🤷🏻‍♀️ I just had my 2nd and I don’t think my family is complete yet

Answer

I always wanted atleast 2. After my first, who was a hardddddd baby, I was like you know what, maybe one is enough 😂 and then a few months before he was 2, I was like ok no let's have another. But 2 is enough for us and I had a tubal removal done with my c section! 2 was always my magic number so I knew it was time for my tubes done!
