Problems with Getting My Husband to Understand the Need I Feel for Another Baby

I can understand where your husband is coming from about wanting to buy a house and get finances settled before having another baby, my husband and I waited til we bought a house and I graduated college and had our finances all situated before we starting TTC and I think that worked out well for us. However, you could tell him that you'd like for your kids to be close in age which is why you want another baby soon. Be honest with your husband about how much you want another baby and see if maybe he'll come around. When the timing is right, you'll have another baby, try and be patient, take care and good luck!

I understand how you feel about having another baby, and they are so cute and lovable but you have try to understand your husband, did he say that he doesn't want any more kids or to wait. he wants to buy a house which is a good investment for your future. You are 24 years old and have a whole lifetime to have another baby. This is my opinion and you don't have to listen but go back to school now and do what you have to do and get your finance in order. K. give yourself about 3 years and talk to him about another baby. raising 2 kids and working fulltime is hard work. I'm a mother of a 15 months girl and currently 4 months pregnant which was not planned. I'm 32 year old but my husband and I did all your husband said he wants to do buying a home and got our finances in check. so now we can have babies, so i don't really mind been pregnant. it's a lot of work. good luck to you, hopefully my answer help

I wouldn't stress to much about them having to be close in age to be close. My son and daughter are 4 1/2 yrs apart and he adores her, they already have a special bond. If she needs someone to play with set up some playdates with other kids in your area. I think the question is does he want anymore ever?
I mean there is never a perfect time to have a child. And keeping in mind you'll be pregnant for 9mths. Figure out a timeline together and work from there. I would really make sure he is a part of the planning process. By the way Kudos to you for working having a little one and wanting more....your amazing.

now i know that it sounds a little malicious... however, u can "accidently" get pregnant. i know that it is not very nice but men never understand. and as far as waiting for the finances to be all set, there will always be bills. but i want to have another baby too, and my husband wants to wait until we buy a house too, so maybe it is in the best intrest of your family! good luck, im sure that everything will work out

I am also 24, with a 21 month old little girl. I am almost 5 months pregnant with a boy! My husband did not see my side at first either. I just kept giving him all the reasons I felt it would be better to have our kids close together. I am a stay at home mom (was bartending before I got pregnant with the first), and also want to go to school in the near future. I explained to my husband that we would either have to wait several years or have another child soon. Who can handle work, school, a toddler and being pregnant?? For me, just letting him know all the reasons I thought it would be better than waiting was enough. Explaining it like that rather than me just wanting another baby "right now" because I just wanted to helped alot I think. Finances too... we are trying to sell our home, but we currently have no mortgage. When we move we will and things won't always be a walk in the park, but doesn't that go hand in hand with parenting anyway? There is plenty of time after another baby to make money, and my opinion is its easier to either wait all together or family first, and then money.
Well I hope all this rambling has been of some help to you. Good luck!

I didn't want to have another baby and I got pregnant anyway. My husband had surgery (vasectomy) however it didn't work. I have a 18 yr old and a 14 year old. 2 girls. NOW I have a beautiful bouncing baby boy named Timothy. He is 18 months old. So my point, is to not focus on it and explain to your husband how it is important to you, and yes, ask him how he would feel if you were to accidentially get pregnant.
would he accept it?
Or if you are taking birth control that would complicate things. I say, if you believe in God, Pray that God would help him change his mind.

I have to say I think it would be very wrong for you to get accidentally pregnant like it was suggested by someone else. That would be a lie. No child should be tricked on to someone else and you would fell guilty if you did that to him. I understand you wanting another child. I wanted anther child when my ex-husband did not so I took my birth control and right in front of him trough it away I told him if he did not want any more then he would have to be the one to prevent it. I had two more, the third we both were surprised very pleasantly by. Now I also have to say before my ex and I married he already knew I wanted 7 children, so I felt I was not doing any thing wrong when I insisted we had another one. I can also say life was much easier with our third child because we had our home and finances in order. Talk to your husband and make a plan when you can get pregnant that you can both agree on.
