  1. If he loves you, he loves the person who wants to have a child, he can't love half of you.I wouldn't try to get pregnant either.First of all i think is a good idea to go to a couples counseling, maybe it would help him understand how important it is for you to have a child. A relationship is about balance, you like him, so you don't wanna hold that against him in the future, better be sincere about your own feelings all the time.

    Good luck


  2. My parents were in almost the exact same situation. When they married, my father had already had two children from previous relationships, and my mother was 42. They weren't planning on having a child, but my mother unexpectedly became pregnant, so here I am!

    If your husband doesn't want kids, just give him time. Explain why you want a child so badly and tell him that it means a lot to you. In time, I'm sure he'll come around. :)

  3. Perhaps you should consider a foster child you can skip all diapers and late night feedings and get right to teaching them love and respect, your boyfriend would get a chance to sort of test drive a new family and may decide to have a child of your own.

  4. adopt :)
