Yes...and we THOUGHT we were done...but we are now custodial grandparents...the girls are 3 and 5. My kids are 25, 21 and 18, his kids are 22 (twins). Unfortunately, I doubt seriously we are done...biologically we are finished (it's impossible for me to get pregnant again) but I have absolutely no peace about being finished...

We have two kids, and unless something drastically changes with our finances, we're done.

No, and we aren't trying

I am not interested in having children and we aren't trying. I've never desired them and don't foresee desiring them. However, if God choses to give us children, we will be content to accept them and guide them. I'm open to what God wants for me, and if it's children He's either going to have to change my desires or surprise me.

Yes, and we're done unless God feels like performing a miracle

I forgot to add an option in there for step-children too.

Silly ... because that's me in 6 weeks.

My answer is no, I'm not married, but we want some and will probably start trying after we get married and I will have two step-kids then.

phew.....
I should've chose other, but I chose not married.

I voted "Yes- and we want more."
Our first is on the way, supposedly coming this month. We'll see! We would like more, but are not sure yet if that means biological, adopted, foster, or some mix of all of the above.

Yes we want more.

We are definitely not actively trying, but we also aren't being overly concerned with preventing. I'm nursing and we are using very loose forms of birth control, we aren't HOPING to get pregnant again so soon (especially with little iMan not yet home) but it also wouldn't be the end of the world either.

Well, I'm pregnant with #2, and that's probably all we're going to have. I've thought about a 3rd, and dH isn't entirely opposed to it, but he'd like to see how we do with 2 before deciding.

So, my answer is ... other? Cause we're not entirely sure.

I did no - not trying right now. We are not in a good place with me not working. I think that when I get a job, or April, (whichever comes first) we will start not preventing.

We are done and together have three grown kids. I was watching someone with their grands earlier and thought, "oh, I want one"...then they started whining and I got over it.

We have one daughter who is a year old, and we are open to more although we are currently avoiding pregnancy.

I chose other. We do not have children, we want children, we are not trying, and we are in the middle of adopting.

We have one child and I assume after all of these years (he is 21), there will not be any more.

We have one daughter (almost 2) and we want more. We are open to any who want to come any time soon

We are also considering fostering or adopting further down the road (once we buy a house and have the space, we will most likely set things in motion for fostering.)

We've been married for two years. We have always said that we would wait three years before trying. So I guess next year we'll find out whether or not we can conceive in our late 30's.

I am 43 and been married 22 years. We have three daughters, and are done. My oldest started college this fall, my middle is a sophomore, and my youngest is in 8th grade.

I work part-time, overnights 2-4 times a week.

Married 25 years and have four kids (Girl, 20, Girl, 17, Boy, 15, and a Girl, 8). I thought I was done after three but had a surprise in my early 40s. She is a delight to everyone in the family. I will be 50 very soon, so we're done biologically but haven't ruled out adopting.

I didn't answer the last poll . . . . .

We have two kids and are open to more but aren't trying (actually we prevent at this time, it wouldn't be ideal financially). We'll just wait and see what the Lord says/does in our lives.

Next question: I'm married. Our anniversary is this Thursday, September 11th. 9 years.
