My boyfriend wants a baby. Opinions please!

[MumHereforhelp]

Thanks for reading, sorry.
I'm (31) in a new relationship after a divorce to my ex, I have 2 kids age 6 and 3 from. We were together 12 years so grew up and apart, he suggested we separate when our youngest was 8 month and had a new girlfriend within weeks.. anyway, we co parent well and he sees them weekends which they enjoy.

So my relationship now (1.5year) seems to be going so perfect. He lives an hour away and so we see each other weekends mainly and always have a great time. I've never been so happy and we get along great, his family are lovely and he has a good job, nice house, he always makes me laugh, amazing with my kids. I feel extreamly lucky tbh.

So here's the problem, he has no kids. When we met he said he never found anyone he wanted to have kids with so he just assumed hes missed his time. He's only 30. He's always known I don't want more and says he's so happy he just wants to be with me..
I overheard his cousin saying, what about when she leaves you and your old and lonely because you never had a family... it kind of broke my heart.

What should I do?
Please has anyone been through similar situation and has any advice?

You need to talk to him. Do t make a unilateral decision about what's best for his life, he's a grown up. Also, being with you and being a stepdad might be better for him than being alone.

OP I've read through this thread thinking, "what is wrong with you woman?"

Not to be mean, but to highlight how insane you sound. You want to complicate your and your children's lives to please a boyfriend with a baby you've decided he wants. WHAT.

He's a grown man. If you think he's so wet he can't make his own decisions, then why are with him? You've made your (perfectly reasonable and sensible) boundary clear, let him make his own mind up.

You're not being selfish - you were clear that you didn't want more children and he accepted that and wanted to be with you anyway. You haven't lied, he is free to choose that having children is more important to him that being with you.
I am a big believer that people should only have children if they really want them. Don't change your mind just for him, you need to want them for yourself too!
If you want to confirm your position, ie just checking in now that we're getting more serious that you're still okay being in a relationship with me knowing I don't want anymore children...
but I wouldn't go to him saying, oh maybe i'll want more children if you do etc. that's more likely to end up leading him on

Thanks everyone there's some really helpful comments.

I will likely leave it for now. Your right that he can speak up himself if things have changed.
