Pray about it and talk with your husband about it. You will know what is right for your family. Originally my wife wanted 4 and me 2. After our 2nd we thought for a while there would be a third, but after much waving back and forth and many discussions we decided we were done with 2. I can't imagine having more now, even if I could, and I can't. I don't know how people with 7 - 9 do it.
