So want another baby but my SO never wants anymore kids😪 my sons 16 months and I'm ready for another. I want them close. This was my original plan but now he isn't on board. He says renner is too much he can't handle anymore but I'm the one who takes care of him anyway. I dont ask him for help often- I'm a stay at home mom/nanny and he works. He doesn't get up with him at night and he sleeps in if he's off. Gahhhh so frustrating. Haven't been on birth control for a while but he started pulling out because he doesn't want anymore. I would never make him have a baby if he doesn't want to but it isn't fair to me to just give me 1. I always wanted like 4-5 kids but I had to settle so to speak because he doesn't want that many. I told him I would be happy with just one more(hopefully a girl) and he said absolutely not wahh. Am I being unfair to want another??
@babes101116, I've told him relationships are compromise and I think going from 5 to 2 kids is a big compromise for me. But he won't budge. I think 2 is fair- kind of like meeting in the middle. I don't think either of us are 'right' but I kinda think it's more so unfair to keep me from having what I've always wanted. Then again it could be considered unfair to him because he doesn't want anymore. Idk I'm stuck in the middle. I do get paid for nannying and pay for almost everythig for our son and take care of him 24/7 so idk why he's so against it
He's so narrow minded. He thinks it's unfair for us to have another because that's not what he wants but doesn't see that it's unfair to me because that's also not what I want. @keepingupwithhenry
no. it's not unfair especially if he knew you wanted a big family to begin with
Relationships are about compromise but a baby is a huge decision to make...I'm not sure who is "right"
I have 6, 5 of my own and a step daughter. I find that it is easier to raise many kids then it would be just one. ok when they were all little it was tough and alot of work but now they are 15 14 q2 q0 7 and 10 days old and they are so much fun and so helpful. I would not give this life up for anything! the long nights of the first 5 years were so worth it!
