Nope. At least one person has more

Oh good 😂 I don’t know anyone in real life with more kids than me it makes a change!

3 and there has never been a single moment where I've considered a fourth.

I'd be interested to get all these parents of 5+ biological children into a room to see what it is they have in common that drives them to have such large families.

Foxglovesandlilacs86 · 23/02/2022 04:33

I think it could be lots of things but I know for me ive been lucky to have really easy pregnancies, births and babies. There’s been no learning difficulties or disabilities so far and financially I have been fortunate in a few ways (not through my own hard work unfortunately!)

I didn’t have the best childhood and don’t talk to my family at all, moved across the country to get away from them! That could play a part but it’s not something I’ve thought too much about.

  1. One angel son and ds2 is a 🌈 baby... 💔

3 and hoping for 2 more

snowdropsanddaffodils · 23/02/2022 05:31

1 + twins + ?

I'd love more and have 2 embryos left frozen

My eldest would love more siblings but my sibling and parents are very against it. Don't know why really

FourTeaFallOut · 23/02/2022 05:32

I have three children and this really is the perfect number of children for us.

But sometimes I look at very large families with a fascinated envy. Given better health, a super sized home, an abundance of cash and a capacity to produce a child with any inclination to sleep in the first year - I think I could have had many more.

It's fairly normal among my friends/community but often get stared at when we walk through airports (precovid) I tell myself it's bc I look so young and thin... Grin

  1. We wanted a big family, we are financially comfortable and able to pay for extras and can cope with the chaos (mostly)
imfrommars · 23/02/2022 06:51

Just 1. My one is equivalent to 10 so that's me done.

JorisBonson · 23/02/2022 06:52

No human ones. 2 furry ones.

THATunorganisedMUM · 23/02/2022 06:53

Six here!

sanityisamyth · 23/02/2022 06:56
  1. I wanted more but now Ex-husband turned out to be a complete nightmare.
TonyBravo · 23/02/2022 07:27

I have 3 girls and 2 boys ranging from 1 to 14.

Would love to have 6 kids, even number and maybe another boy if God plans that for me. My Dh has dreams of 8 kids. Even 10. Lol.

PopsicleHustler · 23/02/2022 07:30

@Elllicam
So wonderful. Just like us. People think our house is hectic but the kids all get along and look put for one another and both myself and Dh work hard for our family.

Will you have any more?

PopsicleHustler · 23/02/2022 07:33

Sending lots of love to you @Elderflower14
