Yes, I definitely think the miscarriage had something to do with it. Sorry to say. Sad that that happned for you this year on top of this. Regardless of his feelings about the miscarriage, sounds like he is on a flight from children. Read Flowmom's thread and think carefully about DBing a man who can't handle the responsibility of children if you think you want them soon. Her H wants them but seems unable to handle the responsibility for them emotionally or timewise. Sorry FM if I'm reading this wrong or if that sounds harsh. My only point is if you think your H is panicing on the child issue and you might want one, maybe the time is to let him go. However painful this might be. Do you want to get deserted with a two-year old in a few years? sorry to sound so blunt, but there seems to be a lot of depressed, avoidant Hs in this world whose spouses are now (with children) on this board.
