My husband and I are talking about having another baby. I am unsure as to whether or not I am ready for another one, as pregnancy and newborn babies are a lot of work. I think my husband really wants another baby, but he will not say how important it is to him, as he wants for it to be primarily my decision, since it will affect me more than anyone. And he knows that I will be more apt to do it if I know that it is something that he really wants. I don't know what to do. Any imput or ideas are welcome!

Are you financially secure? Are you working? Do you have an awesome marriage? Do you love children? Do you have enough money to take care of them, a big enough house to keep them in, will you be able to save up a LOT of money for college 15 plus years from now? Are you in good health? Are you overweight or underweight? did you have hard pregnancys? Do YOU want another child? What are your family dynamics? Do you have support from other members of your family? How does your 17 year old feel about it?
You answer these questions and them ask yourself if you should have another child. That is something that only you can answer.

Yes!!
I am one of five kids, we are all really close, and to me, the more siblings, the better!
That's why I want a lot of kids :)
We were all about 2-4 years apart in age, so if the youngest one is that age, you could try for a fourth baby
Good luck!

Whatever you want to do. I know it's a hard choice but what do you want? If you don't want a newborn--have you considered adoption? I know it's a long process but trust me the rewards are so great and outweigh the bad. Whatever you decide--do it for you! Best of Luck!

If you don't think you're ready or that you have enough kids already then tell him so .... 3 kids aren't cheap especially when one is a teenager...but if you all have lots of money - then have all the kids you want when you are ready for the task!

I would ask him. It is something that you both need to agree on. If you say that you want one and then he decided he doesn't it will be your fault. You need to sit with him and ask what he would like. Tell him what you want and tell him that you need to have his input on it. He needs to agree.
