My husband expects me to have one child per year for five years...what the ****?

Answer 1

well, I think having Children is something that BOTH people should agree on.

My hubby didn't want kids. I did. I told him I wouldn't marry him unless I could have a baby. We agreed to have 1. (i wanted more but he didn't so we compromised)

now we are planning to get preggers with #2 in December. My son with be 11 months old. My husband now wants 2 or 3 kids!

Your husband needs to be aware of how hard it is to be preggers Have a baby & then recover from it. Some women recover faster then others. Some don't havr it so easy. Don't let him push you into having kids you don't want or are not ready for (mentally & physiclly)

2 way street BIG TIME.

Answer 2

Is that not potentially damaging to

a) Your relationship with your husband and the other kids who are gonna be baying and competing for attention?

b) Your general life?

c) Your body? You are not a baby producing factory and your husband must be told this!

If I said this to my lady she would floor me and quite rightly too. And at the end of the day it is your body, so tell him to eff off with his repoductive fantasies.

Answer 3

No one can force you to have a child that you don't want. Tell him that he can have one child a year for five years if he carries them instead.

Answer 4

tell him you expect him to stay at home with these 5 kids while you are at the spa 2-3 times a month getting your body and mind bakc in shape after all those kids..thats not good on you to be pregnant for 5 str8 years like that...tell him to get a grip.

Answer 5

tell him sure i will pop these babies out for you then go back to work. you can care for them, cook for them, change there bums, deal with them when they are ill, and teething. do you still want them now? or can you at least think about it and come up with a more piratical solution i.e leaving at least 2 years gap between them, a year for your body to get back to normal and a year to get out of the teething stage. it will make it abit easier on you if he still disagrees then tell him he could always be the next Arnold and be the one bearing the children leaving him with the saggy belly. lol

Answer 6

Oh myyyy!!! You've probably heard this before and the only thing I can think of is talk talk talk about this with him even though you may have already. I wish I could say more but I am a little shocked like everyone else. Please keep us posted. Good luck to you!

Answer 7

It takes two to make a baby! This is potentially a big problem area - you didn't have a clue about this when you married him?

I suggest you start talking a lot, and soon.

Answer 8

tell him that total unreasonable got to give your body time to recover after child birth if it was men having them they would only ever be one child per family tell him what he can do with that idea stick it where the sun don't shine

Answer 9

I think he is trying to kill you.Carrying a child for 9 months before it is born.It robs the mother of her energy,calcium etc and most of all youth.That is not good for anything,are anyone.

Answer 10

seems like something that should have been discussed before you said "i do".

If you don't want to do this and he won't budge it looks like you two are headed for divorce.

Of course you could always get your tubes tied and just don't tell him.. but eventually he will figure it out and then.... welll then the divorce will happen.. so save time and money.. divorce now if he won't budge on this issue. its a deal breaker.
