Hundreds

three. I would get a nanny because I would be able to afford it, and a huge house!

WigWamBam · 07/07/2005 15:56

I'm happy with just the one I've got.

charleepeters · 07/07/2005 15:56

Only 3! wow i want as many as i can - dp is of different opinio though and say wec an have only 4

nutcracker · 07/07/2005 15:57

4

hakuna · 07/07/2005 15:58

As many as I could remember the names of! what about the wear & tear on the old body, tho'?

hakuna · 07/07/2005 15:59

not to mention the stress...

I think I'll stop with my 2.

charleepeters · 07/07/2005 15:59

its worth it - i would gladly look and feel like an elephant if i could have loads of children

Norash · 07/07/2005 16:02

I used to say 4 before I had my son, now I say 2 is the limit.

And this is only because I don't want my son to be an only child.

Norash · 07/07/2005 16:03

Hakuna, how old are your kids?

lou33 · 07/07/2005 16:03

I think that the 5 I have will do!

aloha · 07/07/2005 16:41

Maybe one more - with my stepdaughter that would mean four between us. Would have a daily mother's help and a huge garden. But not more children as I get far too fat when pregnant! (also personally don't think I'd have enough time/attention for more)

tortoiseshell · 07/07/2005 16:43

I'd like 5

jessicaandbumpsmummy · 07/07/2005 16:44

after today, none.

in an ideal world, 5/6

6

sweetkitty · 07/07/2005 16:49

I would have 4 of my own then probably adopt another 4 to fill my huge mansion house!! And I would have a nanny to help out and a hosuekeeper and cook!!!

Pinotmum · 07/07/2005 17:01

I think I'd have another 1 which makes 3 plus I'd adopt another 3

Miaou · 07/07/2005 17:04

I've got two, no. 3 due in 3 weeks, and if time/money allow I would like a 4th. Don't think I would want more than that, though

Gobbledigook · 07/07/2005 17:11

If all those were no object I think I'd maybe have 4, but I'm quite happy with my 3 boys

swiperfox · 07/07/2005 17:13

loads!!! I'd love 4. I've been thinking of having another one - that would take me to 3 but i wouldn't want to have an odd one out so if i had 3, i'd have to then have a 4th lol
