So after breaking up from a 8 year relationship that gave me my wonderful son (3.5yrs old) it was a shock that just one week later I met my new parter... It was just right and I know he is my soul mate. We've been together just over 18months and I am desperate to carry on my family with him. My son had a few jealousy issues with him when I first introduced them and if I'm honest he had the same with me son... So their relationship was strained to start with but my partner had never been around children before he was awkward and felt uncomfortable. Now they play together and all is rosy... Except the fact when I brought up the topic of having another baby he shuts it down. Now in a few years time I'm going to be 30 I don't want to run out of time to have a baby. He feels it's more important to have our own home whereas I'd happily rent forever and have a family... He likes his expensive things and is worried they will suffer if he has a baby (and most probably would if I'm honest) but I'm so broody... My implant runs out in 9 months and I don't want to go on anything else after... Sorry for the essay but has anyone dealt with this? Can you offer me advice on how to shut my feelings off a bit until he is ready? Alternatively can anyone help me find some way to reason with him? He does want children with me our issue is agreeing on when. Thanks x
