Hello,
I am so stuck wether to go for three or four children, may someone with experience share what they think is better. We are in a good financial state so we could manage 4 but which one is better I've seen people say "don't go for an odd amount of children" but does this really matter
What are your thoughts?

How many children do you currently have, if you don’t mind me asking? We have 2 DCs, and that’s the right number for us. DH is the oldest of three, and the odd number was not an issue

Thank you for sharing I don't think the odd number will be an issue currently I have one
