Spawn

So FBD (that's right - I warned you that was his new nickname) and I were chatting about our future spawn last night.  What are your thoughts on spawn?


1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
2) Do you want kids?
3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
5) Timeline for having your spawn.
6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?The pugs don't count...right?
    2) Do you want kids?Yep!!
    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?I want 5.  FBD tells me we're stopping at 3.
    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?Why yes, Paige, I am amazing and crazy.  Our first born boy will (probably) be named after my grandfather Robert Joseph (RJ for short).  I like Maddison (Maddie) for a girl.  But that's as amazing as I get;)
    5) Timeline for having your spawn.Well FBD is a little older so we'd like to have kids within the next 5 ish years (before I'm 30 and before he's 34)
    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?Twins are pretty common in my family.  I kind of hope I have some...but then I also hope I don't because that would be crazy.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    No way, man.

    2) Do you want kids?
    Of course.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    I want a lot (like 4 or 6) and so does BF, but my dad always tells us not to have a lot of kids.  He's one of 8 so I guess I can take his word for it.  I figure we'll figure that out as we go along.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    Yes... I love August and Lilah, BF likes Josie.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    Hopefully they'll be really close together.  Maybe start in about 4 years? Maybe 6. No real rush for offspring.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    I have to many. Psych classes do terrible things to you.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    Noooo.

    2) Do you want kids?
    Yes.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    I would be fine with 2 max, but FBD wants at least 2.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    In the Jewish religion, it is custom to name your children after a deceased relative. The Hebrew name is the same (or a gender variation of the same name), and the English name uses the same initial. I would love to name my first child after my two deceased grandfathers whose names started with an M and an H. So for a boy, I like Matthew Hunter and for a girl I like Megan Hailey or Madison Hailey. FBD likes weird names and will not be allowed to name his own children. Ha.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    It depends on when we get married, but I would like to be married a couple of years or so before we start having children. We'd also like to own a house.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    My brother was named something entirely different when he was first born. My dad convinced my mom to name my brother this, and after a week or so, my mom realized she HATED it. So she had to change my brother's name and get him a new birth certificate.

    No.

    FI does.  I am open to the idea.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    2 or 3.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    Not really, but I'd like to use family names.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    Just not immediately.  Best if we're out of school first.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    None that I can think of.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    We don't have any children yet, thank goodness I am so not ready for that yet :)

    2) Do you want kids?
    Yes, we are both 100% sure we want children

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    We want 3. He always liked that he had two siblings and I always wanted one more. 4 would be the absolute max.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    LOL...yes! We talk names all the time, its something we like to do when we are bored. For a boy Jake is the top runner right now. For a girl, he favorite is Ashlyn (which I hate) and my favorite is Aria (which he doesn't really like). We both agree that we like the name Claire though.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    We would like to start trying about 3 years after we are married, so when I am 27. But we have also discussed that we would like to adopt at least one child and we will probably start looking into that around the same time because I know the adoption process takes time.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us
    Ummm....its not really a fact but I think it would be cool to have twins. I doubt it will happen though because they aren't common in mine or BF's family.

    LMAO Paige --

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    Nope no real children now thank god. Nannying and teaching are enough at the moment. But my basset is a child in his own right so he's 3.

    2) Do you want kids?
    I've been all over the map with this but now I am definitely settled with the position of wanting to have kids. FBD changed my mind just by being himself.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    1 or 2 - we kind of agree; I said if we get a girl first we're stopping, he says no we have to have two. I am inclined to agree because ExH was an only child and totally weird (no offense to those who are!)

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    BSA and already have our FLS's (future little spawn) names picked out. Olivia Rose and Oliver Chase. -- I know Olivia is extremely popular but I love it and I love the matching names. Whatever FBD loves it too.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    2-3 years. 10 months til the wedding, Licensure for me and working for a year then baby time. I'm more towards 3 years. FMIL timeline = walking down the aisle pregnant or a honeymoon baby. Thumbs down.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    The middle name Chase is in honor of FBD's best friend that passed away 3 years ago this September in a bad accident. FBD had a hard time dealing because he was in the car and ended up getting out and getting another ride. I think the middle name is a great way to memoralize our friend. :)

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    No, and none of the furry variety either.

    2) Do you want kids?
    Yes
    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    1 - yes we do.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    I like Emilia. FI is focused on the fact taht the one child will automatically be a boy who will be named Jackson. I do not like the name Jack. So I don't really know...
    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    Get married. Buy a bigger house. Get a dog. Future spawn. I.e. many years away.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    I destined to give birth to a mammoth baby.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    Just the furkids. Pounce will be 3 in October! Etcetera is 1 1/2 Innocent

    2) Do you want kids?
    Absolutely!

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    We're shooting for two. We might renegotiate after that, but right now we do agree on two.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    Yes. We both like Kara for a girl and Cade (DH's middle name) for a boy.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    We'll probably start TTC shortly before I graduate college (about a year and a half). It may be sooner or later depending on life, you know.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    I used to babysit a lot, and was a full-time nanny for a while. I loved it.

    Also, I can do pretty much anything except bathe an infant. Something about them not being able to sit up and me trying to put them in water freaks me the heck out. All those little baby-bathing contraptions don't make me feel any more calm. I told Josh he may need to be the bathtime daddy... he said that sounds fine.

    REALLY funny-- I actually really like water.

    Posted by PaigeMcC[/QUOTE]

    1) No, most definitely not.

    2) Yes, although I'm scared I'm too selfish to be a good mom.

    3) I want 2 because I didn't like being an only child.  FI wants 1, because he didn't like being 1 of 2.  I think 3 would be too many, and if FI wants a third, HE can birth it <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-wink.gif" border="0" alt="Wink" title="Wink" />

    4) I like Noelle for a girl (not actually my first name... I'm not that self centered!). Boys, no idea. Middle names, probably something Indian. FI wants to give them all names that start with A, but that doesn't fit into my "Noelle" plans... hahaha.

    5) At *least* three years.  We want to have plenty of "us" time after we're married, since we've been LDR for so long.  FI wants to wait 5 years, but I have an irrational fear of infertility problems.  (Eggs shrivel up at 30, right? Wait, they don't?)

    6) I was almost named "Amy" or "Angela Nicole".  I can't see myself with either of those names. If I was a boy, I'd have been "Austin".  Anyone else have certain personality associations with specific names? I do, and none of those are good ones for me.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?I have one who is 3 1/2 and he tells people that "WE are getting married and Jon is going to be my step-daddy and I'm going to have a mommy-mommy and a daddy-daddy still too!" The we he speaks of is Jon, Mommy and him by the way and he yells this with absolute excitement!

    2) Do you want kids?Definitely, good things since I already have one... huh?!

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?We would like to have 2-3 more for a total of 3-4.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?We've talked about names a little... nothing set in stone though.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.We plan to start trying after we are married next year (we'll both be turning 28 shortly after the wedding) and then have our children relatively close together. 

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?I am very excited to see how FI is when I'm pregnant and with a newborn.  He is awesome to me and treats my son like his own... they are buds and it's adorable.  I'm sure he will be an amazing father!

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    Nope, unless you count FI..He's 22.
    2) Do you want kids?
    Yes
    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    I say 2-4 and FI says 2. I don't think I could handle having more than two under 3 years old though.
    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    We have already decided on fiving the first girl/boy our middle names. Off hand, I like the names Luke and Lauren. I've always loved the name Kyle but FI doesn't want to have a jr and have to wonder which Kyle people are talking to
    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    I would like to be married, out of school, have any debts paid off, and be financially stable enough for me to be a SAHM.  Part of me wants to wait a year or two after getting married and part of me doesn't. There's also little part inside of me that would love to have one now but I soon realize I'm crazy and that idea has BAD IDEA written all over it.
    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    I would love to have twins. We have had a few sets of twins in my family so thats a plus for me.

    We're still discussing that. I want 4, he wants 5... we'll see after having 1 if we want more... lol

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    Have a few... Nathaniel; Audrey; Lucas

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    In the next 4 or 5 years... we want at least a year of being married before we bring spawn into the house

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    NO!

    2) Do you want kids?
    It's a back and forth issue. Right now, no. Tomorrow, probably.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    We have agreed on one. IF we ever decide on two, they will be several years apart. At least 4 or 5.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    Yes! Like GPB, I'm Jewish and she was correct, so no need to reiterate. My mother's father's name started with an I, so if I ever have a son he will be Isaac. Not just for the I, but because it means "laughter." His middle name will be David, which was my late father's name. I also adore the name Gabriel, but neither BF or I have a "G" in the family.

    As for a girl, the letter S is very popular on my father's side of the family - my grandfather's parents both had "S" names, and my grandmother's mother had an "S" name. As a result, the letter S is used a lot.  So, I would like to name my daughter Shoshanna. That name comes from the character Shoshanna Dreyfus in the movie Inglorious Basterds. It is one of BF's and my favorite movies! Jury is still out on a girl's middle name.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    Before I'm 40. Anything after that, I'm afraid of health risks.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    If I ever reproduce, I would prefer a home birth. A friend of mine had one a year ago and said it was one of the best decisions she'd ever made. That and because I cannot stand hospitals.

    Nope, just furbabies -- two kitties.

    2) Do you want kids?
    Yes, but not right away. We want to be married at least a year and have bought a house before we start TTC.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    We are agreed on 2, b/c we both come from big families and want our kids to have a sibling. Although my H likes to joke that if the first 2 are girls, we'll be trying again. Ha ha. Nope.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    We talk about names sometimes but don't have any picked out really.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    At least one year of marriage and have a house. So, a year or two.

    2) Do you want kids?
    Yes

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    Definitely 2, 3 if we decide that it is right for us at the time

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    Sort of.  Just like greenpepper our children have to have names that begin with the same letter as recently deceased close relative.  So we have J, I, H, and L -  We really want Jaqueline for a girl.  Boys we are not really sure about yet but I do like Issac and Luke 

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    We'd like to start in about 3 years (so 2013).  Then an additional zygote would be 2-3 years after that.  We want our childern to be further apart in age than my bro and I (1 yr) and less than him and his bro (5 yrs). 
    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    I have no interesting facts except that until I see the baby by ultrasound I will probably call it my zygote because I a nerd.

    How about...
    BF and his brother are 7 years apart.
    My sister and I are 7 years apart.
    My BIL and his sister are 7 years apart.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    Nope

    2) Do you want kids?
    Heck yes!

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    We both want 2.  I want one of each gender, and we've both talked about adoption as an option (as either an additional child or if we're unable to have children of our own). If I get two of the same gender, I might just adopt a third of the opposite gender!

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    FBD is a 3rd, and I told him there's no way in hell I'm having a 4th.  We think what we might do is combine my Dad's middle name and he and his father's middle name - James Henry.  For a girl, FBD has said he likes the name Julia. All my favorite names start with "M" but FBD's last name starts with "M" and I don't want my kid called an M&M growing up.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    At least 5 years.  Gotta get settled in marriage and the military lifestyle before I introduce children to the mix.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    Twins also run in my family, and I sort of dread it. But if I do have twins, they'll never be dressed the same.

    FI's grandfather (mom's dad) and my grandmother (dad's mom) died on the exact same day. We didn't really know eachother yet but I remember seeing the attendance sheet at school saying FI- grandfather's funeral and thinking about how that poor kid lost his grandparent too over the weekend.

    2) Do you want kids?Absolutely
    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?I want one more. BF wants two of his own. He'd love to have twins.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?Oh yeah. We already have a boy's and girl's name picked out.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn. We're planning to start TTC around May next year.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?Twins run in my family. My mom has twin uncles and she herself has had two sets of twins. I was pregnant with twins a while ago, but unfortunately lost that pregnancy.

    1) Do you have any kids now? Ages?
    None that I know of.

    2) Do you want kids?
    At some point, yes.

    3) How many? Do you and FI/BF/DH/FBD agree on this?
    I think we're both pretty set on having just one. Two if we're super stable, financially.

    4) Are you amazing (or crazy) like me and have some names that you already like?
    We talk about baby names all of the time... though mostly oddball names that we would never actually name a human child. My current  pick for a boy is Faustus... while his pick for a girl is River.

    5) Timeline for having your spawn.
    In the next 3 to 5 years.

    6) Any interesting spawn related facts you'd like to tell us?
    His entire family seems to produce only boys.
