    We have had this issue for the last year so I can totally empathise with you!! I have finally convinced DP to try for #2 although he is still not happy about it.... I have to run but will fill you in when I get more time.

    We are the opposite. I want 2 children and Ian wants 3. I am concerned about the financial aspect but Ian thinks we can handle the addition to the family. He is a person who budgets and researches everything til it squeaks so if he believes we can then I believe him.

    We are due to have out second baby in August and I am thinking about a third as I will need to seriously consider whether it suits me as well as the family. Even if we do have 3, there will be a minimum of about 2 years between number 2 and 3 so we will have a chance to save (hopefully!). I am a SAHM this year and will look at going back to work next year once bubs is at least 4 months.
