How many siblings did you have and how many DC do you have

[MarigoldExpress]

Just curious really, survey style. How many siblings did you have growing up/what number sibling were you, and how many DC did you end up having or not having? (Or would have liked)

I'm youngest of 3 and have 2 DC and would like a 3rd. I know a few families of 3 where the eldest then stopped at 1DC, the middle stopped at 2 DC and the 3rd had or wanted 3! I'm interested in how kids experience different size family dynamics!

Two siblings and three children.

Only child with 5 DC

I have two brothers, I'm the middle child of three. We have two children (our choice). No regrets.

I have 3 older sisters.

I have 4 daughters and 1 son.

No siblings, 2 children (youngest is almost two and I’m on the fence about a 3rd)

I'm one of 4, we have 4 DC, they have 20 first cousins. Unusual nowadays I think.

I've got 1 sibling and I've got 2 children.
I always wanted to have 3 but stopped at 2 because the circumstances required it

3 siblings.
1 DD by choice.

I have 5 siblings. One brother, 2 half sisters and 2 half brothers. And I have 2 dc, 1 boy, 1 girl.
DP has 1 brother, 1 half brother.
we were talking about this the other day and DP’s half brother is the oldest. He has 2 daughters. 25 & 23
Dp is the middle and we have one boy aged 17 and one girl aged 13
and DP’s full blood brother is the youngest, he has 2 boys aged 9 & 5

strange how they’ve all had a different combination and all had 2 🤭

Only child. DH one of 2. He is not close to his sibling sadly.
We have 2 and they are grown up now and so close.

I have three siblings and two children.
I only have two cousins whereas my husband has so many cousins he can't actually count them.

5 siblings.

I have two children, my sister has 4.

Growing up as one of six wasn't a great experience for me, tbh, and I now have no contact with one sibling, very little with another and limited contact with yet another. I always knew I wouldn't have more than two children myself.

1 sibling. Two children.

4 siblings, all sisters and I have 3 DC, a girl and 2 boys. I have 2 foster sons also.

I have 4 siblings, I am the eldest. I have 3 brothers and 1 sister. I have 2 children, they have none, but they are all still in their twenties and I am nearing 40 so maybe they will one day.

I had one brother who died in 2010 and I don’t have any children.

My dm had me and then had two kids by my sd
I have one dd, am on my own, and am one and done

Had a horrible experience with a blended family so not incentivised to make my own x

2 and 2. I'm the older one. Sister had two

I’m the middle of 3 and had 3.
my elder brother had two and my younger brother had one.

1 of 8. I had 2. Left it a lot later in life than my mum though so perhaps I would have had more…..? No she put me off that well and truly 😆 she did good I wouldn’t cope.
plus different generation and the expectations for her to work were very different. Also cost of living has made that decision for me in a way.

One sibling. Two DC.

My maternal grandmother had 15 children with 13 surviving until adulthood.

I’m the elder of two.

I have two DC.

My sister also has two DC.

My mum and dad had 3 children me oldest my bother middle and sister youngest.
My dad had another son after he and mum divorced.
I have 4 children myself 1 girl and 3 boys.
My sister has 5 children 3 girls and 2 boys.
My brother has 1 child a girl and one on the way.

I’m one of three, with one DC and another on the way. I think we will stop at two, I loved having two siblings but we did miss out on a lot when we got older because our parents just couldn’t afford us all.

Im one of 3 the middle i have 4 didn't want an uneven number.

Dsis has
1 dbro none

Dh is 1 of 4 the youngest was killed age 21
His 2 siblings each have 2. He obviously like me has 4.

He liked being one of 4 as a child.
