Honestly, having a baby terrifies me. And why shouldn't it? But i feel as if WE are ready. We are finally in a good space, financially and in our Careers. I have been with my husband since we were 15 and 16 years old and we are not 25 about to celebrate 4 years of marriage. We occasionally bring up having babies. Every now and then, he will show me something, for example - a girl shared a photo of a transformation from a pregnancy test and no belly - to a big belly - to a baby sitting in her lap. Just says "Look!" and at first i was like at what? lol. OR shows me a video of a maternity photo shoot and just says hey look at this video with no further words or explanation.... Either way - off topic a bit.
I feel as if he hints at wanting a baby - and i try to hint back, hoping he will be the one to bring it up, but he is a man right?! I feel as if i have TERRIBLE baby fever and his step sister is currently pregnant which is making this even harder to not just SCREAM that i want a baby. I am not afraid of his reaction or answer because i think he does want it, he LOVES kids and babies and will be a wonderful father!
But how do you bring the conversation up ?? Just come out and say - I want to have a baby! I don't want him to feel obligated because all he wants to do is make me happy and i want it to be OUR choice not just something I want....
How should I start this conversation? I try to throw out little hints by sharing certain baby stuff or tagging him even. I feel as if he is waiting on me to say something but i have such bad Anxiety, I of course freak out when i am about to say it and back out.
How did you tell your hubby you wanted a baby? Does men have bad baby fever too? lol
PLEASE HELP ME FIND THE WORDS
