Trying for another baby without agreement of dp?

[scoobysnax]

I am considering another baby by subterfuge...does anyone have experience of this?

Oh goodie - I'll join in this one as well. My dh is not sure if he wants this one to be a boy or a girl. He wants a boy but... feels that a girl would be cheaper. I've remained quiet so far and not pointed out that this one is due in August and that my dd was born in March and that the seasons will be so out that I will have the perfect excuse to buy more.

How silly of me Wills. Whoever heard of a husband refusing sex from his wife-duh!!! What was I thinking.
Leave him! With 2 ds?
It sounds like you'd be able to win him round, even if it took lots of discussion. I only hope I get to the stage where I can persuade my dh that we want more kids. (more than 2, that is).
I think alot of men only realise how much they love kids after they've had them. I fell pg by accident first time, after dh had said he wasn't ready for kids, but I was! When ds was born he changed from 'I don't want kids yet,I'm too young', to 'I love being a father-can't imagine life without her'.
BTW Hope the pgcy is going well.

Have to say lucky you in some ways Mine went from "I really want to be a father" to "I really love her and wouldn't really want to change anything but I do feel tied down and its such hard work and....." (the list does go on)! You're right if you're hinting that I'm being nieve (can't spell) and I do hope that sod (who regularly watches all my actions) isn't going to create a situation where I'm forced to prove my words. But given what happened to my parents I have given this a lot of thought - especially post my dd's birth when he was no longer quite as enthusiastic any more.
