It's great you have already made up your mind, I have 5 kids, and I can honestly say that although I would never give any of them up being sterilised when I had the last one was the best decision I have made.  Although I have had a miscarraige since my sterilisation, I have to admit the horror that filled me thinking I may be increasing the family even though it was just by 1 was more than I could live with.  I love all of mine to bits, and even in a 4 bedroomed house, squeezing the 5 kids in, is hard.  Also my car hasn;t been upgraded to one that can fit us all in, so I can only ever take 1 older one with the 2 lo's when I go out makes it really difficult.  If as Sam says, the house size, finances and car size were no problem, then I don't think having more would have horrified me soo much.  But with the problems I had throughout the last 2 pg's, I am finally at a place where I am content in my life.  I am enjoying my time with the 2 lo's in such a different way than I ever did with the older ones.
