Babies...

Alright ladies I need your help here. 

A lil background: DH and I have been together for 6 years engaged for 5 years and married June 2010. We have had discussions in the past about children and both said We had to have some of our own and he even mentioned wanted 4 or 5. Holy-moley!!!!

Last year he wanted me to go back on birth control 4 months after we got married and said he didnt know if he EVER wanted kids. So of course I go back on it. And now my libido has disappeared. Without Birth Control I am normal and cannot get enough of my husband.  Now that I am back on birth Control it sucks, we went 3 weeks without any sex. We have NEVER did that even when I lived with my parents. We have had discussions here recently and jointly decided that we would begin trying in 2012. He told me he really does want kids. 

Now this is whats happened: Last night he woke me up at 3 am. Said "Babe, Lets do it, you stop taking Birth Control, and throw caution to the wind and get you knocked up" Isn't that just a lovely way to wake up at 3 am? I told him he must be sleep walking or something, He said he was fully aware of his words and actions. That he wants me to come off birth control and get me pregnant.

What do I do? I have asked him question after question. And he still says its my decision but of course I want to come off birth control and get preggo. I guess I think its too good to be true... What would you say or do???  6 months or so ago he was against it now he is for it??? Hmmm. 

 

Suggestions please. :)

  • I would wait and see if he changes his mind.  He's changed it twice now; better to be safe (and awake!) than sorry.

    You are probably right! I honestly have my fingers crossed though! I would LOVE to actually start TTC!!!

    This is what I was thinking :)

     

    In all honesty, I say sit down and have an adult conversation about it, not just a 3am epiphany.  Finances, how your lives would change, home situation, etc.  If he's serious, then you'll know.   Once both of you are on the same page, make the decision when to TTC.

    Thanks for your comments ladies! We sat down for dinner tonight and discussed it. We are going to work on our house this spring for more efficient heat and  planning our chicken coop and veggie garden and not FOCUS on TTC. Better our home and when it does happen we can be better prepared. I believe we are on the same page now. Thanks again ladies!!! :)

  • I agree with the ladies. Sit and have a chat with him if he serious about it and you don't get the vibe that he'll change his mind again go for it! Good Luck! :)
