So I think this is usually the other way around but my husband has got me thinking overtime after mentioning more children 2 nights in a row. It came about after I said I was going to sell our baby stuff ( youngest is 14 mnths) and he said don't we might need it!! I asked if he was talking about another baby and he said he loved ours so much and he had 'toyed' with the idea! He then repeated it the next night after I said I would look at going back to work. Im shocked! I thought we were done! We have 3 ages 8,4 and 1. I'm not Broody ( you know that all I can think of is babies thing!) I was even getting my practical hat on in terms of planning a future without more babies... I worry it won't be fair on e others, especially the eldest. There are quite big gaps between them as it is...but I do love babies.. Oh my heads spinning! Sorry I'm ranting...

DH was the same after our 2, but I told him under no circumstances would I be having any more. He tried to get me to talk about it, and I told him I would listen to his reasons, but I wouldn't be having any more kids and that was that.

Ahhhh, what harm can it do! You can never have too many babies. Smile really practical me eh!

I have 2 (inc a 3 week old) and I suspect DH wants one more. I don't. Not looking forward to having 'that conversation' in the future.

In my case I dislike the baby stage but love them when they're about 6mo. I also hate being pregnant and find it very hard going physically and emotionally. As much as a 3rd would be nice, I do feel the negatives outweigh the positives.

I hope I don't let him 'talk me around'
