Limiting number of tenants
I have a 3-bedroom rental. Is it ok for me to list it as a 2-bedroom with office? Also, can I limit the number of tenants to 2? If it's ok to limit number of tenants, is it discriminatory to not rent to a 2 adult/1 child if I will accept a 1 adult/1 child tenant?

That sounds iffy to me, depends on familial status discrimination potential and security deposit limits. I would read through your local landlord tenant laws as that might not be legal.
