2 tops, kids are a lot of work and there's not much point in having more if you're not up for the challenge..

In a very far future, once I have an stable job, if affordable and if both of us agree, I'd love to have three. Three has always been my "magic number" for some weird reason, and I like big families. Ah! but before the time comes I have to do sooooooo many stuff and travel around like crazy.

One or two if I ever feel ready to have children. I can see myself having none too.

None for me. Having grown up in a large family with such a big age gaps (my brothers are 13 and 17 years younger than me and my sister) I've seen what a struggle it can be to raise children and seen the not so nice aspects of raising children like changing nappies, toilet training, tantrums, the massive amounts of mess they leave behind, the fact you have no time for yourself. It's such chaos in our house when we arrange anything and though I am close to my siblings there are lots of arguments, and it's really put me off. My boyfriend isn't fussed about having children either, I'd like for it to be just me and him and a couple of cats

I'd like 2. I don't think it's good to be an only child, they tend to be quite spoilt - two of my friends are only children and although they weren't spoilt brats, they are not very good at sharing and are quite selfish. So I think 2, unless I had two of the same sex, say two boys, and I really wanted a girl, or vice versa. Three max though, because the more you have, the less quality time you can spend with each one individually. My dad has 5 older siblings and he was totally neglected as a kid

When I was younger I wanted 12 like the cheaper by the dozen gang, then 6 and now 4 2 boys 2 girls.

I'd like a boy then a girl. But if it felt right and I was stable enough to I'd consider having three.

Two
I'd like girl first and then another girl or a boy. 3-4 year age gap between then would be nice too.
