I am Sooooo ready to have another baby!! My husband on the other hand, not so much! Our son is turning 3 next week and I really want him to have a baby brother (or sister) but my husband says he does not want anymore :( I'm not sure if it is because he is scared about me having issues again or if he really doesn't want anymore. Whenever we talk about it he always says it's because we can't afford another baby, but really, you can never really be financially ready, right?? We will adjust and make changes as needed, but I am ready, and after what I went through with Eian, I didn't think I would ever want anymore!

Ugh that's hard...I can inderstand him being scared after what you went through that's for sure. Maybe he is saying he dosen't want another based on his fears and not being able to afford it is an excuse. I would try talking to him,be gentle and tell him you want to undertand how he is feeling. Maybe even go to some therapy session together to really get to the bottom of his fears and help eachother on your journey to try again.
