I have 5 children 3 girls and 2 boys ages 12,10,7,5 & 2 months... I personally am finished, I don't think my body could handle another pregnancy! I feel like my family is complete and to all of those people who said I was crazy for having so many, they'll never know the love and accomplishment I feel when I kiss all my babies goodnight!

I have seven. I wanted to keep having them till it was physically impossible, but the prospect of having grandchildren the same ages as my children is a bit daunting. Not to mention the physical part is getting really tough.

I have 7 4 girls and 3 boys. If I knew for 100% that I'd have another boy I could be talked into it BUT as I'm moving toward 40 and pregancy definitely gets harder the older you are......I'm done! I had the last 3 in 2 1/2 years. I was ready to be done about 4 months into the last pregancy!

We have 9, ages 23, 14,14,12,10,9,6,5, and 3. The youngest 3 are foster kids. I also have two granddaughters 4 and 1. We are a blended family the oldest one is my step daughter and the next 5 are ours. We have never thought that there was an end. We love kids and there is always room for one more.

We have 9, from 11 years to 27 years. I would have 9 more in a heartbeat!
I cant have any more physically, but would adopt!

I recently got married to the love of my life of three years and we don't have children together, we do however; have children from previous relationships. I have six, 5girls and 1boy, my four girls from a previous relationship and my son and daughter from an abusive marriage. So in fear of my ex-husband leaving me and not being accepted by another man because of having so many children on top of my mother constantly telling me no man would want to be with a woman with six children I got my tubes tied. Now if you were to ask if I thought about having anymore I would've told you I can't, then most people's response would be "Don't you think six is enough?" That's before I got married to the man in my life now who would like to have one but the surgery for reversal is very costly. What's strange is that my OB sent my ex-husband out of the consultation room to discuss the process of doing the tubaligation surgery and asked me if I was sure I wanted to proceed, that maybe one day I may end up with someone who may want a child with me and my response to her was "Not in this lifetime". Boy were a lot of people wrong, including myself, so if you're wondering if I feel that my family is complete I'd have to say yes and no.

We have 6, ages 18 mos. to 16 years, 3 boys and 3 girls. After the fifth, I was ambivalent about a 6th. We had a happy surprise pregnancy that ended in miscarriage at 10 weeks. Then I KNEW I wanted one more, for sure. Luke was born a year and a half later. I feel like our family is complete, but we aren't stopping another one. I'm 41, and it seems like my fertility is dwindling.

We have been blessed with 8 living children. We will know when we are done, when God stops giving us children lol. I will be sad when I don't have a baby in the house anymore. I love having teenagers and babies and everything inbetween. They all just share bedrooms (4 bedrm house) and they don't need even half of what everyone seems to think they do. Didn't start out wanting a large family, but wouldn't change it for the world!

We have 5 total,3 boys and 2 girls. works well for us because the girls are teenagers while 2 of boys are preschool age. I sumtimes feel bad for my middle son,hes 9 and has no one in his age area to play with at home. Hes a great big brother tho. The girls are plenty old enough to lend a hand. The little guys can sumtimes trest my patience tho. lol

We have 8 but none of them are mine biologically. I really want to have at least one of my own and there is still the possibility of fostering/adopting more when these guys get older. I guess we will see what God has planned for our family. I never imagined I would be the mother of 8! But I want more!

Im pregnant with my fourth and the only thing thats stopping me have more after this one is lack of room. If room was no object i'd probably want perhaps six, before my oldest was born i wanted twelve so ive compromised a bit because i dont like labour lol.
