For some reason I have always wanted two. Not sure why. I have a sister so there are two of us but we are not especially close as we have very few things in common so the desire for the second child can't be for companionship. Having the two boys is a wonderful thing for me, even though DH is starting to try and persuade me that number 3 would be good (and a girl LOL). I agree with Mumma2girls that watching the two together is so heartwarming, though with Adam only 4 months old we haven't got the fights yet.

If you and DH are happy with one, then stand firm with your decision and tell everyone that has any inappropriate comments to mind their own damn business as it doesn't affect them at all. Maybe ask them how they would feel if you asked them personal questions and gave advice when it wasn't wanted or needed. Hopefully that will shut them up.
