I don't know what to do. I really do love him but I don't think I could go on if I didnt have the chance of another child. We have spoken about this and he says "never say never". In my book that is a No but he is just wasting time. I need help. I feel like I am cracking up. What shall I do A Desperate Woman Reply to this Question

No, I don't think he will ever agree. And you should not expect him. Raising three children, and providing for their education is financially taxing, as well as physically demanding, as you know. At his age, he is looking at that youngest child and counting the years before that child is educated and on his/her own. He looking at his sixties before he can start putting money away for the two of you to retire. Talk to him about this, but be realistic. At your age, it is not surprising that you want another child. At his age, it is not surprising that he does not. pops
