My DH has pretty strong baby fever. I think it has a lot to do with our friends having LOs who are at a fun age. Toddlers can be a lot of fun and are pretty hilarious!

DH is so excited to have kids but he is much more patient than I am when it comes to waiting for the "right time". I think the baby fever will kick in more for him when it's go time around April.

Nonexistent.
In fact, if there is a negative value for baby fever, I'm pretty sure he has that.

@Ra: lol mine too. Then again we just had ours 3 weeks ago so we are in a refractory period, I guess.

Mine has strong baby fever for #3 and I am currently pregnant with #2. He is the baby feverest.

@RA: mine too! Our LO is 16 months and my SO is 100% sure he wants to be one and done. I'm trying to get on board with the idea but we'll see

We are currently pregnant with number 1 and he can't wait for numbers 2 +. I keeping telling him we should start with 1 and see how it goes.

It is nonexistent!!! I'm pretty sure if I wasn't set on having 2 he would be okay with just one. Lol

Very low. I think his interest might pick up the more interactive our baby gets.

He couldn't be happier with our one, but cannot even talk about whether or not we will have another some day!

When we were TTC for our 1st, DH's baby fever was definitely stronger than mine! I think it's b/c he's older and he has always wanted to be a father.

It's insane. He was talking about #1 (and 2 and 3) for years before I was pregnant. And literally said "let's have another" the first night we were home with DS. Our deal is that if he can tell me he wants another at 3 am when DS is up, THEN I'll begin to consider the conversation.

He has been into having #2 since we started TTC this summer, but then being done. Last month I had a CP and that put his baby fever into high gear. Now, he's so excited to have #2 and has even starting talking about #3. Love it!!

@snowjewelz: Same here. But after I got pregnant and the reality of it hit him, he was a little overwhelmed and anxious about it. Haha. Every couple of days he says, "Oh my god. This is real". The baby was just an idea for such a long time, he can't quite wrap his mind around it actually happening!

@Iced Tea: I think I'm going through that right now haha, I'm due really any day now and I'm the one that's like wait, so we really are having this baby?!

Extreme. I had decided that if number two wasn't going to happen, I would just move on. I told him this summer that I was done, and to just get a vasectomy, and that we needed to move on. Then a month later he came back and told me that he was really heartbroken to hear that, that he couldn't imagine cutting off any chance for more children, that he didn't feel like our family was complete. He felt as strongly about it as I did about wanting the first.
Thankfully I was already pregnant when he gave me this speech! So, that worked out well. I'm not sure I would have done the drugs again to have another one. I'm really glad that I just got pregnant.

It's pretty high. He's the ultimate dad. He's been wanting #2 since LO was 2-3 months old.

On a scale of 1 - 10, he's probably at like a 1 or a 2. He'll mention cute baby things here and there, but I don't get the planning/obsessive vibe from him.
Me, on the other hand, I'm like at an 8 hahah.

@Iced Tea: my DH went out and bought an SUV the day before I was induced. I was having mild contractions at home (but didn't think I would go into labor) and could only shake my head because I just think he was in a state of disbelief

He's been ready for #2 for awhile. I think his baby fever was higher than mine for a long time. He's super happy now that we just got our BFP!

Mine wants to be a father, but his #1 priority is to make sure it's the time I want since he feels I'm going to be the one carrying the baby inside me for 9 months.

Moderate, I think he'd be excited about #2 but doesn't want to push/pressure me. We've actually been talking about adoption recently and he's been super into researching and talking about that,

High! He has a 14 year old son, and can't wait to go through the baby stage again. He's also a twin and twins run in my family too. So he's praying for twin girls. Lol. He basically wants to have enough kids to form his own soccer team. I told him two, *maybe* three.

Both of us want a baby, but neither are in a super hurry. I have a month and a bit left of my BCP then on to NTNP. But H has been talking kids a lot more frequently lately.
