are you from a small or large family yourself?

I was talking to my MIL ( a mum of 3 who wanted more) about us being only children and she thought that not liking being alone when we were children has made us want bigger families as adults. Have others found this or have most mums with big families come from big families?

I am oldest of 5 and have 5 - although I only wanted 3, it helps to have a positive role model.

iam one of 7 but one died,i have 4 but wanted 7 and realy want more!
