I definitely agree with telling your husband about your desires. He may have changed his mind, and how awful would it be if years from now, you found out he'd changed his mind, too, and neither of you spoke up, and it's too late? Yes, there's a good chance he hasn't changed his mind, but there is a chance that he'll consider it. I know it's scary, but at least you won't keep wondering.

There's nothing wrong with changing your mind, and there's nothing wrong with him not changing his. Obviously, it's a problem, though, if you don't share the same desire. If he refuses, you have to decide if you can go through life without children. If not, it might mean breaking up your relationship, but you have to do what is best for you. I hope it works out for you.

As for meds, talk to your doctor about it and research it. Don't make assumptions based on fear. It might be more possible and less dangerous than you think to go off the meds to have a baby.
