We have 2 ds's already but ive been wanting another baby for a while now. Dh was adament a couple of years ago that he didnt want to have anymore after ds2. Just recently we have spoken briefly about it and I told him how i feel and he wasnt so adament this time which has given me some hope that he may just change his mind. However when we discuss the near future there isnt no menion of anymore babies. Can anyone give me some advice please, thankyou

Talk to him.

He may have sounded less adamant because he thought this had already been decided before so he didn't need to explin how he feels again. or like you he might have changed how he feels.

you will never know without talking to him though will you!

I'm in the reverse position to you. My DP wants another child, I really don't.

All I can say is listen to his reasons very carefully, one of you will have to compromise and if you don't understand the other's POV resentment, whatever decision you make, can set in.

Yeah I have said to him that its got to be a decision made by both of us whatever it may be. I told him that I dont want to be a really pushy wife and him just giving in to me because I dont want him feeling resentful towards me in time to come. Hope you dont mind me asking but how is your DP reacting to you not wanting anymore? Thanks
