OP, since you are the one who is always bringing this up, you are the problem. stop.

Your one child should not have to grow up in a divorced home because you want what you want.[/quote]
If it's OK for the husband to revoke his commitment to more than one child, it should be OK for the wife to revoke her commitment to marriage.  I am not saying she SHOULD do this.  I am saying it's not impossible, unreasonable or even unexpected to grow to hate the spouse who is forcing you into the image of the family they now decided they want - after promising you something entirely different.  You're saying that the only reasonable way out is for the wife to shut up and get over it, and that's just not true.  True, you can't force someone to have another child.  Equally, you cannot force someone into continued love and respect of someone who betrayed a vision the wife thought they shared. [/quote]

Go back and read OP's post at 6:37. All her husband agreed to was to "keep an open mind." My guess is that OP crossed her fingers knowing he didn't want more than one kid and figured she'd change his mind. [/quote]
