I have 5 1st cousins. My kid's have 8 first cousins. DH has 39 1st cousins all on one side! We get together with all of them a few times a year and it is close to 120 with spouses and kids.
I have 14 1st cousins (not including step-cousins b/c I have no idea). My kids have no cousins. It makes me sad. They are the only grand kids on both sides of the our family.
I have 4 1st cousins..2 on my moms side and 2 on my dads. My kids have 2 on H's side and 1 real cousin on my side then 2 step cousins. My brother just remarried and his wife has 2 boys. That is probably all they will have. Both my sister and H's brother most likely will not have children.
0 cousins. I'm an only child, my mother abandoned me so I know nothing about my maternal side of the family and my dad's only sibling died in an accident at age 17.
Ds has 1 cousin. But he doesn't know him bc his mom (H's sister) is an alcoholic and doesn't speak to h.

I have 16 first cousins, plus 3 cousins who are my mom's cousin's kids but my grandparents raised that cousin so he's essentially my mom's sibling and therefore his three kids are more like my 1st cousins.
My kids have 3 first cousins and a lot of my cousins kids who they're extremely close to so we use aunt/uncle/cousin/niece/nephew to define the relationship.
I have 14 first cousins. Dh also has 14 but is only close with about 5. The kids have 7 first cousins. We also have friends/family kids that they considers cousins and spend alot of time with. If i counted those it would be almost 25.
"Hello babies. Welcome to Earth. It's hot in the summer and cold in the winter. It's round and wet and crowded. On the outside, babies, you've got a hundred years here. There's only one rule that I know of, babies-"God damn it, you've got to be kind.”
First cousins: 5 on my dads side (one is a step) and 4 on my moms side. I have a large extended family that I am close with (Christmas and thanksgiving regularly have 30+ people) so although mu kids wont have any first cousins (h and I are both only children) they have " distant" cousins their age that they will see multiple times a year
I have 5 1st cousins, 2 from my dad's side & 3 from my mom's side. DD has 1 "true" 1st cousin (he's 18 lives in England & no one has heard from him in about 6 years from DH's little sister - full sister's son) & 7 half cousin's from DH's 4 half siblings. She's met 5 of the 1/2 cousins. They are in their late 20's & DD has/will be a flower girl in both of the girl cousin's of their weddings. One wedding was over Thanksgiving and the other will be in late May of this year.
I have three cousins related by blood. Two of them I keep in touch with and see every few years. The other I have not seen or spoken to since we were kids
I have a cousin related through adoption, he is my fb friend but that's about it.
I have tons of step cousins. Eight through my grandmother's side, and two via my step father.
DD has three cousins on my side (who live in town and she sees quite often) and three on dh's side. The cousins on dh's side are all grown.
