Speak to your husband is the first thing, but if he still doesn't have a change of heart it is important to respect his wishes, as that is his right. X

I agree with Blossoming19..but I find it odd he has your flowchart...I find that a bit controlling but then my husband and I trust each other, it sounds like he doesn't trust you?? But I wouldn't want a big age gap between children so maybe mention that to him too

Just the way your post was written about him having your flowchart makes it sound a bit off...but he has said he wants to wait a while...you need to discuss with him

I'd ask how long he wants to wait and what his reason is. I'd also be straight up and ask him if he wants to have a second child. If he does great just need to understand what his concerns are. If also remind him the older you both get it might not be straight away you conceive and may take over a year or longer and as someone else mentioned age gap between kids will become bigger and bigger.

I think main thing is to find out his concerns.
