Question of the week **Tuesday**

If money wasn't an issue how many children would you love to have and what genders?


My answer: I would love to have 4 children. Two boys and two girls. I always thought having a sibling of the same sex is great to have. Ive always loved that I have a sister to talk to and do fun things with as we grew up. My brother on the other hand didnt have a brother just two sisters lol. Even though we all got along and had fun together I always thought if he had a brother he would of been happierChat Icon

I would have 6 at least 2 of each and then the final 2 whatever sex we would be blessed would be amazing!!!

I always craved that big family and was always thankful to have my big brother but I think a sister would of been nice too.

Money not an issue...well then keep them coming! As long as my DH and are able to give them all the love and attention they need I'll take a ton. However, I don't want to make it on a TV show for TLC so I'll take 6. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon "Mix'em up"

Re: Question of the week **Tuesday**

Even with all the money in the world I would say no more than 3. But I feel like I'm one of the rare people who only wants 1 child. If DH was ok with only having 1 that's all we would have (unless of course I was pregnant with multiples). But he is completely against having an only child so we've compromised at 2 MAYBE 3 depending on our financial situation.

ugh. mine is dead set on only one. I'm trying to sway him to at least two. and the irony is, HE was an only child and thinks it's perfectly okay.

Money not an issue I'd still only want two.

I am one of the other rare people that only wants 1... I would say max 2, even if money was no object.

Re: Question of the week **Tuesday**

Tough question. Even if money was not an issue I enjoy my career, I do plan to take sometime off when I have kids but I do not want to be a SAHM forever bc I LOVE what I do, but also feel the desire to be home while my children are young.

For that reason I would say max 3. But more likely 2. I want to be able to give my children, my DH and my career the attention each deserve and am not sure *I* could with 4, 5 kids.
