How Many Kids?

[judyblume14]

So, Kait has 2? TheLittles has 5? LilDiamond has 1.5? I can't keep it straight.  How many babies/kids/stepkids do you ladies have?

I have 1 but she feels like 5 sometimes, lol

I only have one, but I agree so much with this.

Only 1 here too!

Only 1!

I was wondering, are any of you planning for more or are you OAD?

Haven't decided if I'm crazy enough for another one   If we do, it will be at least a few years.

Me too. Haha I just got my sleep back and the newborn days are still traumatic. You have 2 though! Was it easy to make the transition from 1 to 2 or was it the same?

I would like another but I'm older and it would have to be soon so I'm not sure about that!

alioop1028, One to two was pretty hard honestly. DD1 had a very hard time adjusting and also regressed some in sleep making things slightly more difficult. DD2 was a much more difficult baby in pretty much every area so I am still exhausted lol.

I have heard that 2 to 3 is not as difficult, but I'm not willing to find that out right away!

Everyone I've asked has said the same thing. That the transition was really hard, so I'm not looking forward to making this leap just yet. I have also heard 2 to 3 was not as difficult either. How funny. 

At this point OAD sounds so beautiful. Haha

Not that it's the same thing as having my own, but I babysit a 10 month old, and I hardly notice a difference as far as how the days go when he's here as opposed to when he's not. My best friend had her 3rd 5 weeks after DD2 was born and she said going from 2-3 was so much easier than 1 to 2.

That's so interesting!!! I feel like it goes against all logic but I guess it makes sense. More experience and the other 2 can keep each other busy I guess?

Well.... We are at least having 2. Dh is good with as many as we can afford, so we will see.

The @lildiamondeyes, baseball team! Dooo it! And then send pics so I can die of the cuteness. Lol

[judyblume14]

We want a second, but like someone else said... those first few weeks sometimes feel so fresh in my memory. And also, I'm old.

[thelittlesrunmylife]

I have 4 little monsters. 14,12, 3 and 9 months. I also have a stepdaughter (so 5 is "technically" correct for a total child number) but she is 17 and never around because her mother is unsupportive of her relationship with her dad and she's a jealous crazy woman who blames me for everything. its a nightmare dealing with that woman.
