Why do you think she didn't want a 2nd? Did your resentment about this impact the relationship?

Even starting to try for the first child was a huge mental barrier for her. She wanted to prioritize career and has also been scared of getting pregnant. We had initially agreed to have a child 4 years earlier and she postponed. And just before we started trying, she wanted to postpone for another 2 years. The topic for the 2nd did not come up because our first got diagnosed with ASD and our M deteriorated slowly beginning 2021.

I don't have much resentment about not having the 2nd. Its only now that I think I settled for not having something that I really wanted.

Gym, other physical activities, meeting friends (once a week), taking my son out for 1x1 time which I use to improve his gross motor and language skills.
