I knew when I got together with my husband that he did not want children. However as the years have passed my yearning to be a mother has not decreased in any way. This has had a serious impact on our sex life which has been close to non-existant for some time. I find it so hard to deal with this issue.

hello and welcome, so sad to hear about the situation you are in... Have you tried talking to him about lately?

If he doesn't want children, he doesn't want them, you have to either accept it or move on and find someone that does want children. Maybe your sex life has decreased as he is worried that you want children so badly you might have a little accident.

i agree if he doesn't want children then there is no reason to discuss this with him at least he was honest when he told you he doesn't want any children, and you still went into the relationship knowing this. I know it is easy for us to say but maybe you should move on to someone who has the sames dreams as you, but then you would start a relationship and still have to wait to have kids so you really are in a no win situation. because you don't meet people and have kids with them within in a couple of months unless you are Angelina Jolie

ok this whole post may come off weird or harsh or that I might be making lite of your issue but as others have pretty much stated.. he was honest and you went right ahead with the marriage. You didnt say how long you have been married but to me, knowing everything as you did and making the choice you made then you really and truely love this man and if that feeling still remains then I will tell you this.. I can remember as a little girl all I wanted to do was grow up and be a wife and mother. I was an only child but I wanted to have a huge family.. I wanted 6 kids.. like my aunt did lol Well here I am today.. I am 42 and I have been married 23 years and I have 14 kids BUT all of my kids have 4 paws! We found out years ago that we cant have babies and when that news came I was devastated ( I was in my early 20s) I admit it was very hard watching my husbands siblings have kids and when each one announced the happy news I would curl up in bed and cry.. the emptiness inside me seemed like it would kill me. Then we got our first puppy lol and she became our daughter and she helped heal the aching in my heart. Over the years there have several pups and many many cats and kittens and yes every once in a while I still have a tiny bit of aching but with all the love I get from my husband and the " kids" we have, it never lasts long. I guess what Im really trying to say is this.. If you love your husband and you know in your heart he is your forever well then just because you wont have babies with him, it does not mean that you cant be happy or be a mom!
