    docs told me not to have any for medical reasons, military told my ex that he couldn't have any. Well I ended up with 7...had a few miscarriages. That's more then enough!!

    All together, Tim and I have three...but Zoe is only with us part-time :( . I would really love to have one more. Hopefully a little boy! I think by the end of next year we will be ready to get pregnant again!

    I have 6 all together. 5 bio and 1 adopted. My bios are all grown up and between them have 5 kids of their own. They are between 24 and 35. My little guy is 2. I'd like one more. But right now I'm having a hard time with just the one and a fulltime job and a husband who is a first time daddy. That's enough work for now.

    I can see myself having a big family. I think it would be lovely to have five or six kids. I know that big families are a lot of work and expencive, but it would be worth it. I think I would make a good mother, and I always loved big families. I grew up in a three kid family, and that always seemed too small for me, even know I know that's pretty average.

    So, yeah, maybe five or six kids. Four, at the very least.

    I already have my god-daughter. I would like to have two sons. But I would welcome however many fate decides to send my way, biological or otherwise.

    But I would like two sons, Christopher Michael and Alexander Jaymeson...the first one named after my best friend who died in may and my bio. father...The other would be named after my three brothers, Alex, Jayson, and Jaymes.

    I have two beautiful boys (check out the signature ;) ) and I would like at least two more. Possibly more, lol. I'm sure my future hubby isn't up for that many but I'm sure I'll have one more later on. I still want a pretty little girl! I have the name Keeli picked out and everything, lol.

    Earthy--I've always wondered, how do you pronounce "Croix"?


    Anyways, I don't have any now, but I might want to have a maximum of 5 one day (all adopted of course). But really, I think it's too early to tell. I'm going to have 1 and then see how I feel!

    i'd like atleast 4 maybe more. my mum & dad had 4 children, dad wanted more but mum didnt, i'd like a large family & a close one at that. i'm really close to my sisters & brother because, my sisters brought us up & there are very little years between me & my brother. i'm wanting to start a family now, dont think my BF is too keen just yet tho.

    i've picked out all the names i like, supose thats something all girls do as they are growing up tho. i always said i dont care wether i have boys or girls but i have more favourite boys names pick out than girls names

    I have four. That's a good number for my dh and I. He wanted 6 when we first started taking about having babies. He changed his mind after the first one was born. (LOL) She's 18 now. After our second (now 16), between PPD and really difficult pregnancies, we thought we were done. We had an other 3.5 years later and our last 5 years ago.

    I;m 43 and Bear is 45. We're done. I think.

    No offspring yet, but some day I'd like a meduim sized family. As in more than two but less than six, with at least one child of each gender.

    Though really I'm not really that fussed. Just have to see how it goes.

    I don't have any now (too young and not stable enough) but I'd like to have 1. I don't think I'd want more than 1 child though. I want a small family
