Im 21 and I have a 16 month old daughter. I want her to have a sibling and I want to get pregnant before the year is over, but my husband doesnt want anymore until we are completely settled on our own. I dont know what to do. I dont want my kids to be too far apart. I want them to be able to play together and get along, like me and my brother did when we were kids. Some one please tell me what I should do.

I wouldn't push it. You are so young, and so is your little one. If your husband isn't interested in having another baby yet, don't freak out. If the kids do end up a few years apart, or even further, it isn't a big deal. Lots of families have their kids pretty far apart in age, and everyone is just fine. I'd want my hubby to be excited and happy about trying to have another baby, so I wouldn't keep bringing it up if you know he isn't wanting to discuss it yet. Wait about 6 months or so, and see what he says then. After all, he is young also. He may feel like he has enough responsiblity as it is with just you, himself and the 16 month old. If he hasn't agreed to start trying sometime in a decent time frame, like a year or 2, then you can get upset and frantic, but I wouldn't be too worked up yet. Now, if it begins to be a REALLY LONG TIME, like 5 yrs or so, and he still hasn't agreed, then you can begin to freak out. Then I'd start to wonder if he really wants anymore kids at all, and just doesn't know how to tell you caause he knows it'll upset you, or that he could possibly lose you. Keep your head up, I'm sure everything will be fine. I just thought you'd like to hear someone bargain for both sides. Good luck.

You should wait until your husband is ready to have another child. Your relationship with your husband should come first.
