[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did it go OP?[/quote]

We are having the conversation in a couple of months, OP here. I am not dismissing my DH's concerns.[/quote]

I don't feel like this is something that you should sit down and discuss at one single family meeting.  For us, it was a series of conversations and respectful discussions over time.  That's just a more natural way to communicate in a marriage I think and allows you to voice concerns that pop up, or alternatively alleviate concerns as they arise.

I (wife) was the one on the fence about a third.  Husband successfully convinced me to have a third, and I'm so so glad he did.

My concerns were mostly fear based.  I got spooked during the first two pregnancies with all the prenatal testing we went through, and after my son and daughter were born, I felt like we should count our blessings and stop at two.  My change of heart happened over a series of months, not in one single night, as we discussed the statistics, what we would do if something went wrong, etc.  [/quote]

I agree with you 100 percent, but we don't have much time as we are getting older. OP here.[/quote]

What I mean is, don't wait a couple of months for your family meeting.  Start talking about this now.[/quote]
