I want a baby
Not to rant, but I really want to get this off my chest. As the title says, I want to get pregnant and have a baby, but my husband talked me out of it. I agree with everything he said. He is very logical. But the feeling of wanting a baby just won't go away.
So we had sex on my fertile window, and I noticed the kind of discharge that made me feel excited about the possibility of conceiving. I told my husband how I felt, but we decided that it's still not the right time and that I should take emergency contraception. So I did. I took the morning-after pill to avoid conceiving. I'm just really sad right now. I agree with my husband’s logic, and I don’t want to guilt-trip him by bringing this up repeatedly ☹️
ETA: To everyone asking, we are both not in our home country. We don't have family around to support us as first-time parents. And while we are both earning well, I am currently in a fixed term contract. We feel that getting pregnant before I secure a permanent position wouldn't be the best idea.
Please be kind to us. I just posted here to get it off my chest. I'm really sad and I know my husband doesn't want me to be sad either. He's so precious. Please don't judge him negatively. Maybe I'm just having a baby fever.
I am 32. And we've been in LDR until less than a year ago.
So yes, I understand how and why he's not panicking about it. I hope redditors will avoid jumping to conclusions
