If you do, how many and are they boys,girls or both? Do you want more children? If you are not a parent, do you plan on becoming one someday?

I do not have any children but the girlfriend gave me a scare on my birthday telling me she was pregnant and I said thats ok and that I knew ultimately it wasn't my decision so whatever she chose I would stick by her and she appreciated it so much she just gave in and admitted she was messing about (usually she would keep the prank up for weeks). I do want children someday but I want to have first moved in with her and got married and both of them are a little while off yet (as least 3 years) so its just a matter of waiting on it till I am ready then talking to my partner about it.

I think if you treat it too lightly the chances are you will be a single parent or have a kid that you never see. Its a whole new life, another 2 people that you are dealing with here and one your going to be half responsible for having created so its not a little decision to make.

Enjoy every little moment with him right now. They grow faster than you can imagine. Soon the wee hour feedings are through and he will say "No. I do it!"

My Daughters - Lina and Lydia dressed up in their costumes for Halloween.
I am a parent. I have two daughters, ages 3 and 1. I would like more children at some point. I don't plan on have anymore biological children because I had a tubal ligation.

Adoption is a great thing! They can reverse your tubal now. Just in case you weren't aware of it.

I have 3 right now, I don't think I and my husband will have more, but he keeps hinting he might in the future. We are both 24 and have an almost 4 yr old girl, an almost 2 yr old boy and another boy who was just born August 26th. I have my hands full right now and I don;t think I want to go through the baby thing again. I know my husband wants another girl but I don't know yet.

I had all of mine in my twenties too, but I'm glad that we left our options open. Now that mine are growing so fast and we're in our 30's, I think it will be different this time around. We're a little older and more financially stable and mature enough not to sweat the small stuff.
