Millyella agony auntChildren can place a lot of strain on a relationship; are you sure that you've thought this through enough? Your partner may be happy with the family you already have. Just because you 'want' a child isn't really a good enough reason for having one. Find out why your partner is opposed to extending your family. And then examine your own motives for wanting to extend it.

I agree with the previous answer; both parents should want a child in order to have one. There are enough unwanted children in the world already; don't try to force the issue.

brooke5426 agony auntthats not very much information. why doesnt he want another one? is your relationship strong enough for another? you cant make him want something he doesnt want so i would say just to talk to him about why he feels like this and wait because he may feel different one day. For God's sake please dont come off the pill without telling him like so many women do! best of luck x x
