Hi all im new here. Me and my oh have been married 2 years, he has 3 children from a previous relationship and they are aged 9, 14 and 18. I have a daughter from a previous relationship whos 4 and we have a daughter together aged 16 months.
My husband had non hodgkins lymphoma cancer at aged 34 and had to have a lot of surgery to his chest as well as the usual chemo and radiotherapy, he takes a fair bit of medication but we manage and he is a great dad but gets tired quicker than me! He is now 40 and in remission but still gets a lot of chest pain.
We are totally blessed with the children we have but I have this nagging feeling that I just really want another one. We always talked about it and said we would wait 5 years but I dont think I can and I think he will say in 5 years time that he is too old etc etc. Im trying hard to convince him that another one now would be great as then we would be able to have plenty of time for us later!
I dont know why I suddenly feel like this and probably am being a bit selfish but he always knew I wanted one more and I feel like the time is now! All his kids from his other relationship were really hard work and screamed day and night he says whereas mine have both been really good although my youngest is slightly more difficult than my eldest. Everywhere I turn someone I know is pregnant and im just so jealous its not me! I absolutely love being pregnant and the whole giving birth thing I love being a mummy more than anything else in the world and I cherish my children (and his as I class them equally as mine as they dont see their mum).
Not really sure what response if any im looking for I just needed to get it out xx
