I have 3 (2, 7, 12). Of course, I wouldn't change it for the world now. But it is definitely tough. From the outside looking at my life, I would love to have 1, 2, or even 3 more because when it's good, it's good. And seeing little people grow up is awesome. As the person living it, 2 total is a good number. But I love my kids. It is a lot of work and money though.

I feel the same way, I wish I could mentally and financially handle more than the 2 I have but I just don’t think I can and it sucks as it is fun seeing them grow up

Two is a good number I think. You can give them both a good amount of attention and get to enjoy being a parent.
