"We have almost no evidence for lower class families. For upper class families, there is very little evidence for large families. In the mid second second century BC, Tiberius Gracchus and Cornelia had twelve children, three of whom survived to adulthood (Plutarch, Lives of Tiberius and Gaius Gracchus 1). We find some evidence in the imperial household of large families: Germanicus and Agrippina had six children survive to adulthood. Julia and Agrippa had five children. But outside the imperial family, we look in vain for other similarly large families. If we look through Pliny’s Letters, the families who appear are mostly small, one or two children. Pliny himself was an only child. He seems to have had very little close family."
