Hmmm, I think the fact that you've started this thread should tell you that you already know what you want I think most of us women just 'know'. Although I did want 4 until I fell PG with this one and decided I'm not sure I could do another first trimester two more times I just know there is absolutely no way I could stop at 2 kids though - no way. Friends with 2 or more kids have said 'Yeah, wait unitl the next one is here and see what you think' but I highly doubt this next child will change my mind about having a third. I never thought having just one baby would be as challenging and time consuming as it is but it certainly didn't stop me for a minute from wanting another one. I'm pooping my pants about having another baby but I know I've survived 22 months with DD, I'm sure I'll adjust and cope all over again. And that's my theory for number three - I'll cope, we'll cope. Sink or swim - we'll swim

So I think from what you've said in various posts that three kids is your calling but maybe a slightly bigger age gap is what you need though. My hat goes off to all the mums with LOs so close in age - that is one thing I knew I couldn't (wouldn't?) do. We'll have 2.5-3 years between baby 2 and 3. I have a few friends with a bigger age gap than usual between their kids and it seems to work really well.

Good luck hon!
