| Where to start.....I'm 37 and my husband just turned 40. He has a 5 year old son from a previous relationship. We've been married for 2 years and together for 3 so my stepson was very young when we first got together. We tried IVF and ended with a chemical pregnancy and no baby. We planned to try again with a different doctor who I really believe can make it happen for us. Recently my husband has changed his mind and no longer wants to try; it usually spawns after an argument. This time he's sticking with his stance and flat out said he doesn't want a child with me. My stepson will be living with us 100% when he starts kindergarten this fall; not what I originally expected. I'm upset because I'm not "allowed" to MAYBE have a baby of my own but I have to help raise my husband's son. My parent's don't have any grandchildren and my stepson is the only one on my husband's side (his 8 year old cousin died in an accident less than a year ago). I feel like my husband is being incredibly selfish! He knows I will resent him for this but I guess that's ok with him. I hate to say it, but I'm not sure I can do it. | |||
