[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, you're not being selfish. If it's truly that important to you, your husband should be supportive. Men don't understand the impact having babies has on women. [/quote]

+1.  Stop sleeping with him.  Say you feel totally uninterested because of your body image.  I bet he'll give in.[/quote]

isn't this the norm?   all women stop sleeping with their husbands in their 40's and 50's.   the discussion boards on this site confirm that.  [/quote]
?  No, all women in their 40's /50s don't stop sleeping with their DHs.

Do you feel attractive? Are you happy about the way you look? Just curious[/quote]
No, I don't feel very attractive without my clothes. I have small boobs and am self conscious about it. I am not overweight, but having large babies on my small frame did a number on my belly. I have the dreaded mother's apron over a c-section scar.   However, DH always tells me I'm beautiful, makes me feel cherished, and I know he loves me.

I would probably  have surgery to fix my belly if we were very wealthy and didn't have kids to take care of. But as it is, with a HHI $180K and two kids, I can't justify spending that much money (and time and have DH do all the childcare/cooking/housechores and work while I recover) just to make me feel better about myself.  I have better things to spend our money on right now, like our retirement (DH and I want to retire early) and our kids' college fund.

So it’s a matter of money. BTW, I am very happy for you that your husband makes you feel great and loves you so much.[/quote]
PP here.. for me it is, but I don't think my DH would want me to do it (he's stated before that he wouldn't want me to have a boob job) because any kind of surgery  has risks, and he'd rather  have me whole and the way I am than risk complications from an unnecessary surgery that is all about vanity.  I think that is what OP's DH is saying, too. I can respect that.[/quote]
