I just can't do it. I can't be on board to have another one. Wife seems done after I just told her this again tonight. So I'm going to lose my family over this.
Good....your wife and son can’t trust you.

Without children, there is no reason to marry at all.
You should know that children are more important than a man. Way more important. Denial of reproductive rights is worse than rape. Especially done to a woman, whose reproductive window is time limited.

Totally disagree. Woman here. I feel sorry for people like you.
Why?
Because you apparently see no value in yourself or anyone else besides the ability to pump a baby out of your twat.
That's just you projecting. I didn't say people have no value without pumping out children. I said that to me, there is no reason to marry without children. And that children are more important than a man - obviously in the context of the marital relationship, and all other kinds.
No, you said “without children there is no reason to marry at all.” That’s a blanket statement. You didn’t preface or end it with “to me”.
Dude, it's a discussion board. Anything people write is their opinion, it goes without saying.

I was in a similar situation (minus fertility issues) and convinced/pushed my DH to have a second. This second became the most amazing litttle girl and my DH is totally in love with her (maybe because she looks so much like me).
I am now pregnant with baby #3.... DH’s idea...
It's not that easy. It's too much work and I don't want to do the work of having a newborn baby that will wake up thru the night. Plus, I'm now 37 and too old for that.
.....and probably cheating. I hope she leaves your selfish butt.

Again— troll because he posted this twice.
But if this is true, what manipulative bullshit. Fine, I concede but this is all on your head. And I’ll never let you forget I don’t support you. Is she supposed to use donor sperm? Are you going to never take any parenting duties? What else does “not supporting” mean? What the duck.
Go. To. Therapy.
She knows how I feel. I said I'll do to the doctor but she knows I don't want to. She got angry and that's why we're here. I told her I know I hurt her but I just can't do this. I love her but I can't.
If my dh did to me what you’ve done, I’d haul your ass to that clinic so fast. You would be forced to make good on your so called offer. She needs to channel her anger into determination and take some pre-natal vitamins stat.
OK but I just changed my mind to the final decision so now I refuse to even try.
You’re really indecisive, OP. Now changed your mind about that after you told her you agreed? Not the best troll either.

This is ridiculous. I’m childfree by choice and very happily married.

If my husband had been strongly opposed to a second child we would have stopped at one. Dh would have simply had a vasectomy and we would have raised and loved our one child.
Thankfully we did have a second baby. We both agreed that 2 was enough and I got my tubes tied.

Did your husband say he wanted a big family? OP did. I love my husband, too, and he is a man of his word. OP isn’t.

Or she won’t be able to have a second child anyway and will have blown up what could’ve been a perfectly nice family for nothing, for a stupid pipe dream.
If she's ready to blow it up, it must not be perfectly nice.

And yet she's not worth enough to you to go ahead and really try for a second child. From her perspective, you're not worth enough to her for her to not at least make a serious try at a second child. Your priorities are no longer compatible.

So easy to say when you actually had the second child, isn't it? What you would have done isn't relevant to this situation because you weren't faced with the actual decision.
