Hi Steve,

I respect your decision of not having any kids of Emma.
.. but you have to consider Emma's thoughts and feelings either.
You should've told her for the first place right from the start that you want no kids.
Being honest in the relationship is very important and you know that yourself BUT you should've opened out more about this very complicated issue even before.

But having said that, it's still up to both of you what's the best thing to do.
I know how hard the responsibilities of looking after kids, etc. but perhaps Emma will be happier if she has at least your own child.
I was so bored when I came here for the first few months but I did feel a lot happier and stronger when I had my first child.
It was too much on the plate having a baby yet it's really rewarding and worth it to have one... and now, I have 2 .
Just imagine a house with no kids, I'll be bored.
They are my pride, my everything..
It just takes time for you Steve to get used to have a newborn baby in the house.
But at the end of the day, it's still your child and no one else can make you happier than seeing your baby's smile... and scream?
Oh well, they do grow very fast.
They won't be like that forever.
Just take life easy.
I don't want the both of you to rush about any decisions that you have to make.
I also don't want the both of you to regret things at the end and it's too late.
Goodluck...
Everything has a reason...
And hope you'll choose the right path on to your decision
