I say listen to your heart. If you do not think your family is complete then go for it. We just knew after three we were done.
Mom23boys, I agree 100 percent! I never felt I needed a girl to make our family complete. I think it's true that a woman knows when her family is complete. After we had two, I tried to convince myself that we were done (they were getting easier, we didn't want to "start over"). I went back to school and started focusing on a new career...but when we found out #3 was on the way, I was so happy. I had never really felt done. Strangely, I now feel completely done. So I guess for us, the magic number is 3.
