When my sister wanted another baby but her husband said no. She put things that smell like new baby around the house. In her case it was an essential oil called "Gentle baby" before she knew it he was the one that wanted a baby. I'm with you I want 9. Good luck!

I wouldn't try to convince him it has to be a choice that the both of you want. 7 kids are alot to handle at your age and adding an 8th could become a problem for the rest of the kids you already have I know that you probably have room in your heart for another but I would wait a few more years before you add an 8th child in the house make sure hubby fully understands you and you fully understand your husband.
Just remember that after every c-section you have had it makes your uterous weaker because they make a new cut everytime you have a c-section I would find out the risks and everything before I was to decide on to get pregnant again or not. I would also include your husband in this topic as well.

The first question to ask is if you can afford an 8th child! I don't know many who can.
The second question is whether you know you will have time to devote to each child, and not letting any feel left out. I know you probably feel like you have tons of room in your heart for another, but you must also have time! Do you work outside of your home? I can't imagine it being easy to spend time with eight children when working.
Third question: does your husband want one? You say he says no, so make sure he really wants one before you try. If not, he may grow to resent him/her or your other children. If you want to convince him, maybe compromise by waiting a while. You are pretty young, and you may wish you waited a while so you could enjoy each child before they grew up!
Try not to worry too much about rough pregnancies in your decision (unless, of course, your life becomes endangered!), because it will pass soon enough, and the end result is always worth the morning sickness!

If your income can sustain and you can sustain with your sanity, then go for it. But listen to your husband, you want to make sure HE is happy. There is nothing worse than getting pregnant behind your hubby's back and him being against it, you could risk him not even bonding with it. Be mindful and try to see his reasons. Take a look at your situation and try to see what he sees. Try to get even closer to the 7 you have.
You guys really must have good jobs to afford 7 kids!

first of all you have a ton of time to have another child, you are only 25!!! wait a couple years until you are more financially stable!!! Give the children you have time with you.
