I want another, but OH doesn't
Hi all
I was just wondering if anyone else has been/is in the same situation. I have a gorgeous little boy who is just over 2. I love him to bits and would love for him to have a brother or sister as I am one of 2. Hubby isn't keen and I am finding it really hard, it is almost becoming an obsession for me (although I don't mention it that often to OH as I just get upset)
I just don't know what to do really. I earn the money in our family and have just got promoted so will be on about the same as when we had DS, so I don't think it is a finance thing.
Am I being selfish?
Sorry for the rant xx

I dont think you are being selfish at all, its nice to have siblings and as you say you are going to be financially stable etc.
What are his reasons?
My daughter was born after IVF with donor eggs, and we have 2 embryos in storage and my husband won't let me go and get them; I so want our daughter to have a sibling and he just says that something might go wrong, she's such a handful (only to him) and we should be grateful that we have her and not push our luck, etc etc etc
But I want her to have a companion through life, especially as we're older parents, and his refusal is driving me mad as time is running out.
It is sooooo frustrating, I am hoping time will help, but I worry that the easier it gets with DS as he gets older the more used he will get to the easier baby-free life.
Take care all xx
