JOKER...Is your baby using GLASS bottles?  VERY IMPORTANT!!!

So anyway I want antoher baby!!!  I really, really do.  It's strange because I didn't think I even wanted one.  I just want to wait a bit.  Right now we still have a bit of a life because my parents like to take her once in a while and we can pretty much take her anywhere.  I know with two...life will be all about kids.

---

Oh yeah We change the bottles we had as a gift some plastic ones they had toxic material so we change them... Thank you...

I will have 4 if I could afford them, but I really hope to get at least 2.

No worries I will start very soon. LOL

No, of course not, but I don't think any parent -as rewarding as it is to be one- wouldn't recognize that it's draining. Sleepless nights, stress, worries, etc. It also puts quite a bit of stress on the parents relationship. Specially in the early years
It's hard enough to do it with one.
At least that has been my experience (maybe because of my particular situation or personality. I dunno)

I don't think anybody is prepared, or knows how much WORK it is to be a parent, until you become one.
I definitely don't regret being a parent, but I can't not recognize that it's a crap-load of work, at every level.
(hope that answers your Q as well, Chuck)

---

Yes, it IS a sh itload of work - like realizing there is no formula at 3:00 am and going to buy it, taking baby to hospital 'cause of a high fever, etc... Thankfully, mine slept pretty well through the night and didn't give us too many sleepless nights or really gave us much stress in the early (baby) years... If I knew all my kids are gonna be like that, I'd have 20!

---

I think it's situation/personality, Pogo. Personally, I honestly think that's the only good thing I've ever done in my life... or maybe not the only good thing, but the one that's given me the most satisfaction (being a parent, I mean). But I guess it helps that I like my kids as people, not just as my kids. There aren't three people in the world I rather spend my time with than those three (again, big baby included). They're tons of fun to hang out with.

---

That is cuz your kids are FUNNY!!!

Buffster JR jr: Um Mrs Chilenita I am old enough to pour my own juice now...but thanks.....

@Joker: Enjoy all the little things now 'cause time flies and next thing you know he'll be off to highschool... I remember wishing she'd get bigger, start crawling, start walking, start talking, etc, etc... I sometimes now wish she was back to being a baby.

i guess another question is, how many can you afford nowadays?
not only about money but also about time. with work, the house, marriage, and the number of priorites involved, the number of childen you wish to have becomes an issue.

---

Important question I think because there are tons of people who have kids without thinking of that.

Kids are so expensive but they are also time consumming so how many can you have while still focusing on them like you should...that's the question.

My baby girl has not started dance or soccer yet but once she does it will take up at least two days at a week at first. I only have so much time.

---

For the average person, I'd say: one. both emotionally and financially

 

---

I think it's always good to have more than one kiddo... someone close to the same age so they keep each other company and have someone else at home to play with, fight with, grow up together and team up on mom and dad!

If I had the finances, I'd have "as many as God would bless me with" - give me a full dozen, I'll take 'em.   sure, raising them is not easy and as they grow older, the troubles they bring you get bigger as well.  But playing dad is great and probably brings me the best joys in life.
