Is it selfish to my child to only want one child? Will my child feel lonely? I know from personal experience that it was quite comforting to have three siblings running around and constantly filling up the house with noise. But it has become so expensive to have children in Singapore! I feel I can handle the finances for one child. But to have more than that would be a burden... am I being selfish?

Why not take it one step at a time and relieve yourself of the constant burden. Bringing up a child does require a fair bit of $ and when you and your spouse are seriously thinking of having the 2nd or 3rd, take stock of your finances and see if it works out. Certain investments (books, toys, backpacks, stroller, clothing, milk bottles etc....) can pass on to the next child.
