My husband was all for ttc until this last week, the time I am ovulating. Now he doesnt want to do anything. No back rubs, no sex, no nothing. All the sudden he doesnt want to have another baby. Should I be worried that something is going on or just let it go?

men never seem to wat to commit to havign a baby, even if they are ready. My hubby and I treid for 18 months, once I was finally pregnant he started getting all nervous, like maybe it was a mistake. I said you should have said somehting a year or more ago!!! He got over it quick, but the inital shock of a positive pregnancy test freaks men out. All their lives they are told that getting a girl pregnant is a bad thing, then they suddenly have to change that mindset. Its not easy!!

The best thing to do is talk to him about it! Maybe there is something going on in that head of his! My husband definitely likes to take it slower than me on having children, and he has told me it is because he is worried about the financial aspect. Men just have natural instincts about providing, and if he is worried that he may not be able to then he would be hesitant. Just talk openly with him!!! Hope it goes well!

hubbies dont usually kno for sure what they want. most of them take the world on their shoulders even if they dont have to. he might suddenly feel like he cant work enough to have another child. maybe he feels that he doesn't kno the first one enough yet. if hes new to fatherhood he might just need some adjustment time. sit down and talk to him. ask him if theres anything that he would like to talk about or fears he has. good luck and try to be understanding! :)

If you already have a child, which is what I'm getting from "have another baby," then there might be an issue he's fighting. I would ask and be HONEST about what you want.

maybe, they idea of trying so much is stressing him out, and maybe he doesn't want anymore children... Would definitely talk this over with him, because having another child could be adding alot of stress to him... yes, I would be concerned, because this also effects his life, health, and his emotions... talk about it, and Make Sure it is what you BOTH Want... best of Luck~.~

Well yes,,maybe he is sick or having an affair, ask him what is wrong.
If he says nothing, tell him to go see a doctor, maybe he is in a depression
