My dd is 5. For the past 2 and a half years I have wanted another baby with dh but he doesnt want one - though he has only just gone from "not now - maybe later" to "not ever". He has just turned 40 and would be a stay at home dad and these are his main reasons; which I understand. But its still tearing me up inside - I cry aboiu it pretty much every day and I constantly dream about this second child that will never be. Also my dd has started asking for a sibling too and every time she does its like a stab in the heart. It has affected our relationship negatively. I worry I will resent him for this. I know that I cant have another baby with dh but how can I stop tormenting myself over this and find some peace?
