DD is 3 months old and I am in no way ready to have another baby any time soon. I have the implant and would like to start trying once it runs out so DD would be 3 by the time we started trying meaning a decent gap between them.
DH and I always agreed we wanted 2 kids, but after the birth of DD he completely changed his mind and wants only her. I’ll admit that for a few weeks post birth I agreed as my recovery was awful, but have since realised that I desperately want DD to have a sibling. My labour had complications and I know it scared DH which seems to be the main reason he doesn’t want us to have another, he also says that with only one, we can focus on giving her the time and attention she deserves. I understand his reasons and they are reasonable, but I hate to think I won’t have another baby, he’s the best husband and father that we could ask for. Has anyone else been through this or had partners who initially said this then changed their minds?
I’ve tried talking to him and telling him I’d like another eventually but he’s completely set on no more, I’m hoping if I give it a couple of years he might change his mind.
