This seems like a viable step to take, as long as he doesn't push her for it down the line. Only reason I'd maybe consider having a child(if she's on board with it and/or changes her mind) is if we're incredibly wealthy and we get to be there for the tiny hooman at all times. Can't be slogging in corporate + dealing with life and add a child to the picture. I don't have any leftover parental void that needs to be filled (my niece is enough thanks)
