To be honest, I don't think I'd be having unprotected sex with someone who didn't want a baby.

so what is his plan for when you get pregnant which will happen eventually?

RocksThatIGot · 27/03/2013 23:07

He clearly doesn't not want dc3 that badly then. He must have figured out how it works by now.

You need to talk.

I assume you've said this to him? DH, I am not using contraception, and if I get pregnant then I am going to keep the baby?

Then either he secretly does want DC3 (or doesn't mind) or is an idiot.

Is he responsible for contraception? Does he know you aren't using the pill / IUD / diaphragm etc?

You should both stop having sex until you decide what you want. It's an awful way to bring a child into the world.

Arent you involved in this sex? Is he really just doing it to you? Is it just his responsibility?

Why are you continuing to have sex with him if you know this is a problem? You need to talk.

Does he know what a condom is?

StuntGirl · 27/03/2013 23:09

You need to have a rational, adult discussion with him.

And to stop having sex until you do.

This is no way to bring a child into the world.

Is he going to demand that you have an abortion? Is he going to leave you? What is he planning to do when you get pregnant? And what are you going to do? I know you want a baby but be careful you are not getting into something drastic here

YABU. Sort this out yourselves before bringing an unwanted child into the world.

Well he's a twat then isn't he? You're not looking much better.

Tbh it sounds like you're both being ridiculous, you both know the consequences of what you're doing, passing the buck and passively aggressively both continuing to do something which will end in a huge argument and one party seeting with restment is just daft and childish.

Imho you could both do with trying out your grown up shoes and talking about it like the parents you already are and taking responsibilty for both of your own actions.

Why are you putting yourself in the position of potentially bringing a resented child into the world? Stop having sex with a man who isn't on the same page, it's as bad as being the man who doesn't want kids but doesn't protect himself.

Bloody stupid.

ZZZenAgain · 27/03/2013 23:17

so then when you get pregnant you can say it was his fault. Well be careful. You have two dc to look after and you may find yourself with a third on the way and no husband.

People manage in that situation but it isn't ideal. You do sound a bit irresponsible to me, I'm sorry.

FannyBazaar · 27/03/2013 23:18

Does he show responsibility towards other things or is he always happy for you to deal with the consequences of his actions. I think you need to talk. Talk about contraception and maybe more.

'that I want dc3 and I will not use protection'.

I don't know if there are enough words to express how wrong that statement is.

And the reason you are having unprotected sex is......

beanandspud · 27/03/2013 23:30

I'm sorry but you both need to have an adult coversation here.

You have two DC, why on earth would you consider having another child with a parent that didn't want him/her? Were your other children planned or were the circumstances similar to this one?

scottishmummy · 27/03/2013 23:37

I don't think I can say if YABU without knowing what his reaction will be when you do get pregnant.

If he would go mental and you know that then really you should be using something, if it's a couldn't care so much attitude then I dunno.
