Are you thinking about having kids anytime soon? Or maybe you already have and you’re wondering what that “Perfect” number of kids is.

According to science, It seems parents with more than 2 kids face an increasing risk of heart disease with each child over 2.  Interestingly…having no children or only 1 child increases your risk, too.
