But not strong enough to do anything about it!! Haha. This weekend we were at the beach and saw 2 kids playing together. I think he felt sad that our daughter won't have that and maybe a bit wishful that she had someone to play with now when we are all she has....and man does she beg us to play. 
Anyone else have a husband with the fever? Do you have plans to do anything about it?

Yes... He's had the WORST baby fever for the past two years and now we're expecting #2 so he's over the moon

@mediagirl: Hmmm the next time you're down, send him over here and I may be able to snap him out of it hahaha.
No fever over here, yet! Last time, he got the fever when the baby was around 9 months old.

@LovelyPlum: eh. If he decided he did want another i'd be up for it. I have given up the fight for another, though. I highly doubt he will ever act on it. And I'm ok with that!

I highly doubt my husband would ever get baby fever, but if he did, I'd probably go for it. I do not have baby fever at all, but it probably wouldn't take much to convince me to have a 3rd (in like 3 years, if it's even possible since we would not go through IVF again). I'm pretty sure we're two and through for real though!

YES! DH wants another one ASAP, me on the other hand, I could wait a few more months. but I'm going with the flow! I'm still EBF and LO is 6 months. I needed Clomid to get pregnant with DD, and I haven't had my period yet, so I'm highly doubtful I will get pregnant in the near future.

@mediagirl: oh no! Mine has the fever from when our son was ten days old or something, he finally wore me down

No my husband has never had the fever. It's always taken convincing to get him to have kids. We are definitely without a doubt done after this one pops!

Sounds like a good start, hope he gets fully on board soon. LOL
We've both had the fever ever since DD turned 1 but we tried and tried on our own and nothing happened. I had IF with DD and decided we weren't going to seek help again. I came to terms of having an only child due to possible secondary IF issues. So we donated all of her baby gear back in March 2015 except the crib since we were going to use that for a toddler bed. I then find out that I am pregnant in June! It took us over a year to get pregnant with baby sister due in January. We just bought lots of new baby gear this week for DD# 2. Buying stuff the 2nd time around is so much more stress free and fun! I know what to look for. Good luck, hope to hear good news from you soon. @mediagirl:

@Kimberlybee: it's seriously not going to happen. Ha. He's too frugal to have another.

DH always has the fever. He has waves where he sees my thinking and rationale; but in the grand scheme of life, he wants to have tons of babies.
It's not going to happen. Maaaaaaaaaybe one more. But after that he's getting snipped and I'm not leaving it up to chance!

@mediagirl: Ha D got the fever (after insisting for years that he didn't want a second!) and I got pregnant basically right away

My husband has it but it's not like an "awwww I want another baby" way. It's in a "look if we're going to do this again we should do it sooner rather than later. We aren't getting younger" way.
I'm giving myself till LO is 18 months to decide whether to start up IVF again.

I partly wish he had the fever. I'm 99% sure I'm done, but if he had the fever I could be swayed...
grapefruit / 4455 posts
Nope but we have an 8 week old. He says he is DONE! We aren't planning on any more anyway though.

@mrsjyw: My husband is the same. He'd have as many kids as I'd want. We will be done with this 3rd one.

@mrsjyw: This is my husband too. I think he'd have a whole football team if I let him. My body is just not made for that LOL

@SweetiePie: that's kinda how my husband is/was: "look we are already in the trenches, let's get the rough baby and daycare $ years all over as fast as possible"

I wish! DH is more focused on the kids we have (good thing!) than to day dream about future kids. But he is open to more
