Hi everyone. I am a first time mom at 36. I want more kids one day, but have found out my fiance has changed his mind about this.  We have been together four years.  Anyone going through a similar situation.  I cant imagine this was my only chance at this.  It is all so new though.....

Did he say why he changed him mind? Sometimes when the first child comes along it can be just as scary for the dad as for the mom. If it has just been the two of you and now there is this little baby he may see the baby coming between the two of you.  Your right it is new to both of you I say talk to him and take you time and enjoy the one you have. Children grow so fast and everyday is new with them.

I'm 35 and want another child..my husband says wait..I told him he can't make this major decision by himself so we need to compromise a little...after a week or so the compromise became 3 days of trying once a month..I hope it works for me and you too

I'm also 36, but pregnant with my 3rd (2nd for my husband and I). This will be my third girl and I would like to stop now and I thought my husband was in agreement with me on this decision, but now he is (ALREADY!) talking about another one after this.  I can't believe with my horrible mood swings and everything else he can even think it right now.  I'm pretty sure he may have a different opinion after the baby is born because even though he doesn't remember, I know the first few months are so difficult for both of us.  Maybe your husband just needs a little time to get through the difficult early baby stages before thinking about a new one.  How is your relationship?  What does he give for his reasons for not wanting another baby?
