I really don't want to be pregnant again though, the delivery and everything wasn't that bad, I just do not like being pregnant. But I was an only child except for stepsisters from when my mom remarried. Being an only child myself makes me want to have at least two kids, because I thought being an only child sucked and was boring. And I always wished I had a brother or sister who had the same mom and dad as me. So pretty much on one side I want to have at least two kids, but I don't want to be pregnant again. Guess we'll see what happens, I'll probably end up pregnant a couple more times but I WILL NOT like it.Kristinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-74855662296508790622010-08-14T06:35:04.206-07:002010-08-14T06:35:04.206-07:00While I was pregnant and about a week after labor ...While I was pregnant and about a week after labor I was fine with only having 1 kid. Now 6 weeks later with my wonderful little daughter... I'm back at wanting a big family (4 kids). Something with these crazy hormones... the pregnancy and labor has already gotten hazy and doesn't seem that bad anymore.Alecianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-41321392034042776322010-08-13T21:05:19.761-07:002010-08-13T21:05:19.761-07:00We've always wanted 2 kids for sure, with 3 be...We've always wanted 2 kids for sure, with 3 being negotiable. Pregnancy was easy for me - I wasn't sick at all and I didn't even get swollen or uncomfortable until the very end. It's the recovery and figuring out what the hell you're doing and never sleeping and crying because you can't make your baby stop crying that takes a toll on you. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I had no idea it would be this hard to be a mom. Aiden is super cute and he'll grow out of being so fussy and restless, but until then it's hard to imagine doing this again on purpose.

Depends on circumstances when the time comes considering we aren't expecting. I def. do not want an only child, I want a larger family!I am banking when the time comes that after the first one is older, the pain and stuff of pregnancy/delivery will have become fuzzy like peopole say. Besides Miss Jillian's cuteness could make you want to do it again in a couple/few years!Ophnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-47091518260779945682010-08-13T17:07:23.483-07:002010-08-13T17:07:23.483-07:00We are trying to figure out when/if #2 will happen...We are trying to figure out when/if #2 will happen. Originally I wanted a gaggle and then thought about feeding and clothing them ... college ... ALL of them moving back home after college ... and so far we are happy with just H! But the hubs is talking to H about his brother or sister. WHAT??? As far as I know I am not expecting in the next 9mo! If we do have #2 it will be within 3 years of H. Anyway, we are hanging onto everything just in case - and running out of room in the meantime! H's pregnancy was super easy so I hope #2 is just as peachy!JCnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-48008189556329678252010-08-13T14:29:57.941-07:002010-08-13T14:29:57.941-07:00Being pregnant wasn't easier the second time a...Being pregnant wasn't easier the second time around, but with the second pregnancy you're so busy with the first child that you don't have enough time to think about all of the ways in which the pregnancy sucks.Mama Bubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04521543145593543128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-39080324687926434002010-08-13T11:31:02.967-07:002010-08-13T11:31:02.967-07:00I think that once baby #1 isn't so little anym...I think that once baby #1 isn't so little anymore, and your memories of the 1st pregnancy have gotten all hazy, another pregnancy doesn't seem so bad if it gets you back to the snuggly baby phase ;] I believe they call that baby fever. Only time will tell if you're susceptible to it or not! <br /><br />That said, I was an only child, and I don't know about you but I've always felt like I was sorta cheated out of this huge piece of life that other people experience (having siblings, that is). My husband and his sisters are SO close and I know I felt I had missed out on something, not having siblings, so unless nature keeps me from it, I think I really want my kids to have that experience.Jennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08819275270118327147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-64860370287436746842010-08-13T11:13:36.489-07:002010-08-13T11:13:36.489-07:00Our ideal (now, while we have zero, we'll see ...Our ideal (now, while we have zero, we'll see how it changes after one) is between 2-3. But we plan to adopt. I'm hormonal enough without pregnancy anyway. If we decide to go the whole biological route at all, I'm only doing one pregnancy. <br /><br />BUT, you have yet to see how completely adorable Jilly is. Just wait, you'll think she's worth a few hemorrhoids. And if she is, a little brother or sister will be too.Brandihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03943232287773120143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-820398456310222529.post-83930109686999707422010-08-13T10:44:35.294-07:002010-08-13T10:44:35.294-07:008 weeks ago I had my third baby boy in two an a ha...8 weeks ago I had my third baby boy in two an a half years. I wouldn't say it was harder or easier the second/third time around. There were some things that were harder, some things that were easier. I will say for sure though, that each pregnancy goes by so much faster than the previous one. :) My husband is from a family of 3 kids and I am one of 4 kids. We may or may not have one more.

It's adding a second one that does. That being sad, I would think that we are going to try for two. We both come from two-kid households, so that is what is "normal" for us.Non Sequitur Chicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07268138421234170972noreply@blogger.com
