So I've been wanting another baby for years hubby finally agreed in July we've been trying and every month I'm heart broken when my period comes. This month I'm 4 days late but negative tests now hubby says he doesn't want to try anymore as hes changed his mind. I don't think I'll be able to get over this I want one so bad I don't no what to do anyone any advice on what I should do? 😭💔 x

I'm sorry about your struggles in trying to conceive. If your husband has changed his mind about having children, then unfortunately your options are staying with him and child free, or finding a new relationship with someone that does want children. Not an easy decision to make.

Hi @Angelsocks11,

Sorry to hear about your struggles. I'd say give your hubs time, perhaps he is just reacting out of disappointment and doesn't really mean it.
Hope you get the best outcome for your family ❤

Do you have dc with him already?
I notice your line that every month you are heartbroken when your period comes. Is he aware of this? Do you think this intensity (which I do understand!) might be putting him off?

We have 2 boys 10 and 8 already and I know I should be happy with what we already have but I just feel like something is missing 😢 he knows how much its hurting me each month but he also knows I'll be hurt more with not trying at all. Thanks for the replies xx

Maybe your dh can’t take the disappointments anymore.

You've only been trying for 6 months. Too early to be so disappointed (either of you). It's a lot of pressure.

I think it's also important that you don't pressure him to conceive a child he doesn't want.
You need a calm conversation about why he's changed his mind.
