Baby Fever vs Baby Dread

I have baby fever!! I have for a while, and I'm trying to figure out a way to convince my husband to have another baby. We're a blended family- his two girls and my son, and I'm in love with the idea of adding one more. My husbands fears lie with finances and ensuring that our kids have the best and most comfortable lives possible... But I know that we have nothing to fear, between his job and mine. We're both great with balancing the budget and prioritizing, too. The kids are great together and he's the best dad! I understand his worry, but I can't stop dreaming about one more tiny hand wrapped around my finger...

Are there any other moms that have gone through this? Any tips on putting my husbands fears to rest, and talking him into one more?

    Sit down and specifically ask his concerns. If its mainly financial work out a budget together. Make several based on different scenarios, like if you work part time and need daycare or if you stay home and no longer have an income. Factor in short and long term goals. Seeing things in black and white may help you get on the same page.
