Broody but dh not keen

Hi all, I am have really been getting broody lately but my dh just doesn't seem interested.

I don't know what to do as i would really love another family member, but dh has said in the past that just the one is enough and that he wasn't even thinking about having any kids at all but ds came along not planned and we just sort of went with it.

We are still young and have plenty of time but I don't want the age gap between my ds and another sibling to be to big.
He is 5 is sept and will be starting school so I thought this would be a nice time to start trying soon.

Also I would love a April/May/June baby.
Also I love being a young mum and still want to be young with my second.
How do I get my dh to come round to the idea.

The thing is he says because of our ds's behaviour sometimes he dreads having another one, but ds's behaviour is nothing unusual for another other 4 yo.

He also said if it happens it happens, Does that mean I should "accidentally" "forget" to take some pills.
But I really don't want to do that as that's being deceitful.

What to do?

So sorry Amanda but cant believe how selfish your DH being???!!! At the end of the day its invariably us women who do the majority of looking after the baby. You can always find an excuse not to have a baby coz youre alway gonna have bills etc. Tell him straight how you feel & the effect its having on you, as well as that let him be responsible for contraception!!..... didnt mean to sound cheeky at start of post but some men, well you could just ring their necks!! LOL!
