Advice on talking to hubby about having a baby....PLEASE READ!?

Question

We have talked about having a baby for quite sometime now but he has wanted to wait for awhile. I have ovarian/uterine/cervical cancer on both sides of my family however and need to let him know that I don't want to wait too long because of fear of getting these problems. My sister is 26 and is having a hysterectomy this month. Any advice on how to approach him about this? thank you

Answer 1

well if your in fear that if you wait to long to have children you may never get to have one then you need to be up front with him.he should respect your fears and go along with you because your his wife.you need to tell him just the way it is and the hardcore facts that you might not have all the time in the world to have kids and if he ever wants one he better start thinking soon

Answer 2

I'd tell him just what you wrote.  Plus, you never know how long it will take to conceive.  For some people, it happens right away, and for others it takes years.

Answer 3

Just tell him exactly what you have said here.  Make sure that you tell him that you have no intention of making him feel pressured, however, you have this concern...then share your fear.  Before my husband and I married I shared with him that I didn't want to wait too long before having children.  We married when I was 35 and I knew waiting too long might not be wise.  He agreed and a year and three months after marrying we had our daughter.  Good luck.

Answer 4

Just sit with him and just tell him. He would understand. When i got married we went on a huney moon the day after and when i came back i found out i was pregnant and with twins. We werent ready for a baby or twins ha. Yea so make sure you have the money to support your family. And tell him about your sister tell him you cant wait.

Good Luck!

Answer 5

Tell him that you want to talk to him about some personal things.  Tell him about your sisters hysterectomy first, then tell him that in light of the fact that you are probably headed for the same fate, you want to have a baby before it is too late.  I really don't see why, given the circumstances, this would be such a dilemma.

Answer 6
