[quote=Anonymous]Yes - looking back, we should have had a far more explicit conversation about number of children before deciding to conceive. But neither us of expected that I would get pregnant so easily (because of age) - but I did the first month. But given how clear I was about how having children very early in dating, it didn't occur to me that I needed to specify. Like, clear on the first date clear. And the decision to have one was almost comically easy. It wasn't as if I had to "negotiate" that one. In fact, I knew that I didn't want to be in that position in a relationship - convincing someone who didn't want to have kids to have them. AND - he balked at more even before we had ONE, but while I was pregnant! And it was an easy pregnancy. So - yes - I was conflicted about getting married. But about bigger issues as well. Going back to my original post - it was how he dealt with the topic of number of children as much as the wishy washy message. [/quote]
