[quote=Anonymous]I'm not talking about trickery or forcing him into the decision or into having kids that he doesn't really want. It is not something I take lightly and I realize how important it is for us both to be in agreement about how many kids we want/can handle. Currently, this is all just hypothetical as we just have 1 baby (under a year old). But things are going so well and we're both so loving being parents thus far that I've been thinking a lot about how many we ultimately want to have (yes, I know we don't have control over this but in an ideal world...). We are both 30 so we have some time but I'd love to have 4 kids (and be done having kids before I'm 40) and so I don't want to wait too long! Meanwhile, my husband thinks we should only have 2 kids. He only has 1 sibling, each of his parents only has 1 sibling...it's his 'norm' He's also more concerned than I am about money, I think primarily because he grew up not having much $$ whereas I grew up fairly wealthy so he understandably  worries more about finances than I do but I think I'm pretty realistic about finances too. We currently are doing just fine-- no debt and both have stable, lucrative careers.

Anyone out there have a similar situation and were you ever able to get your spouse agree to have more kids? If so, what types of things helped you convince them?[/quote]
