hello,
i dont know if this belongs under conception but i didnt know where else to put it

i have being going on about ttc our 2dc since my dd was 1yrs old and dp has been having none of it even going as far as shouting at me to stop going on about it all the time then telling me he didnt want any more. but then every now and then it would be him saying if we had another one and asking our dd if she wanted a brother or sister.
in november i got my implanon implant taken out because of constant periods. we have been using condoms {sorry tmi} but when hes had a drink he 'forgets' to use them. then in morning he says half heartly "oh dear that could be a problem".

is it just the drink or is he being stubborn because hes said no all this time and doesnt want to give in and say yes. this way if it does happen he can blame it on the drink.....

I would be wary that he doesn't turn round and blame it on You!

He sounds like he is being childish, I don't know about stubborn. Why is he so against another child?

I have 5 dc not all planned but all extemely welcome both to me and my dh, but I have a friend that got pg accidentally on purpose iykwim and it has ruined her marriage.

i dont think he is against having another child he just doesnt want to give in and say yes. i know that he wouldnt blame me.
when it comes to if we have another one or not i told him the balls in his court that im the one that always has protection whether it be implant or pill so now if he doesnt want another then thats up to him sort protection out.
hes just not the way i imagine a man to be the day after forgetting protection. if it were me i be fretting about it he was just oh dear u could be pregnant and thats it on to the next conversation.

i know it sounds like hes being childish but it is a big step. our first dd was unplanned and he did freak out alot so i think hes worried that he will act the same way. plus our dd is very demanding, as in she could the youngest child to get a asbo if we were to let her loose on the streets {grin}

well if you have been totally up[front about it, then it is his problem! lol at your dd, she can't be that bad, and fwiw i found having 1 child harder than having lots!
