at what age will you stop having kids (or did you)?

[RedCanoe]

I have always wanted to be done by 35, so if we decide to go for a fourth child, it will be in the next 2 years (I'm 33 now).

I'm 33 now so hopefully by 34. I actually thought that I was finished at 27 but now I;m hoping I was wrong!!

I bet that was a shock! That's really special though that you little boy made his way into the world in a sneak attack! He must be very special!

It was a HUGE shock...LOL! Our little guy is so wonderful though.

@AtomicSagebrush-I noticed we have the same sort of family! My older sons are proud to have a little brother, but I think they were very surprised.

Well, when this little one is born, ill be 25. He is definately our last, even though i never got to have my DG, neither my DH or myself feel we could have more than 4 kids. Although a lot of people say to me that ive missed out on things by having my children so young, i dont agree with them. Im young enough to have the energy to run round after 4 young kids (my oldest will turn 6 just 2 weeks before baby is due) and when they are grown up, we'll have plenty of time for holidays on our own and being able to do whatever we want when we want, just at the age when we will want to be taking things more easy. I think for us, having the boys young was the best thing we could have done. So ill be glad to be done at 25 i think.

hehe im 25 and i currently have three boys. Got married at 18 and had my first at 19. So started very young. Would like to be done by 30 (i wish). So if HT works this year then yippeeee for that. They should all be in school by the time i'm 30. And then i can concentrate on a tummy tuck (no rest for the wicked ey).

I'm probably done now. So, 24.

I certainly hope not--thought you wanted more (?)

AprilMay, who stops in here from time to time, has a similar age gap too. It is awesome that I've met others out there because IRL people think I am freaking insane! LOL.

My older boys had a little bit of warning because I told them in advance "not to be surprised if..." but I don't think they really thought we would go through with it.

My third son is heck on wheels so we all got a little more than we bargained for with him but on balance I think they've enjoyed having little brothers and it has been VERY good for them. I love it that you're going to try again, I keep hoping that DH has a big change of heart and we do the same! Boy or girl it's all good to me.
