I wanted to have a bunch of kids loved them I owned a day care pre Covid for years. I only had one due to medical issues but we fostered 2 and wouldn’t want it any other way

Definitely wanted a big brood of my own. My 5 cabbage patch kids were my practice 😆 After 3 girls with my ex, I had my tubes tied with the mindset "I don't want to have anymore kids with this man". (He was not a good person and I finally built up the courage to leave him 4 mos later). Met my current husband who ultimately adopted the girls and lemme tell ya...I have definitely regretted that procedure! We woulda had 5 more! 😆

that’s awesome Nancy:)…always wanted to foster didn’t know what to do❤️

oh wow Adelaida I have a tubical pregnancy and could not have any more babies. I underestimated the pain that came with that.

I wanted to have at least 2 kids so they would have each other and not be alone

I felt the same way until I had a girl and a boy and they went separate paths and that worried me until they sat me down and told me separately they would not feel that way because they had me.
