[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our kids are 2 and 5. We both work and [b]barely keep our heads afloat. [/b]But, I know deep down I want a third kid. In 5 years, I see us sitting around the table as a family of 5. I know my husband is not going to be on board. He works a lot and travels a lot, and [b]we are finally to a point where I can watch both kids by myself now comfortably.[/b] Any suggestions of 1) things to consider before talking to him and 2) how to have the conversation with him? Admittedly we aren't the best at communicating, but we are working on it. [/quote] You are barely keeping your heads afloat, it took you *two years* to be comfortable watching two kids by yourself . . . and you want to add another? Seriously, reread that sentence, OP. Now do it again. Your DH has the right idea. Your Norman Rockwell visions of your family notwithstanding, your own words demonstrate you have no business adding to your family. Good grief. [/quote]
