How to start the conversation with DP

Hi I don't know how to start the conversation about ttc DC 2 with my DP. I'm really nervous he won't want to. With our 14month little girl we never had the conversation our amazing girl was a woopsi that we were so happy about and excited about the pregnancy once the shock wore off. However the thought of ttc is a bit scary and im worried that even though I'm so ready for a second baby my partner might not be. He's the kind of person to think of the one con of a situation and that to decide his decision. I feel the pros out weigh the cons - cons being we live in a two bed house and we wouldn't be able to afford to move right now. Thanks

You are massively overthinking this. Unless of course your DP isn't someone you can talk to, in which case, why the heck are you with himConfused

Just tell him something like " I'd like our DD not to be an only child & I feel not having too big an age gap is best for her & me, how do you feel about that" simple - good luck

Make it a suggestion rather than a Question.

It doesn't sound like he is someone you can talk to easily about things. Are you sure you should have another child when you can't have a conversation?
