Well, I know you probably love your husband...but if you and him can't get on even ground about a kid (especially then you probably need to either get a divorce or try to fix things...I am a person who is open to things and wants kids someday so i can't say that they ruin your life because of the fact that you will never ever experience the type of love you immediately get from the second you have your child. It is a natural feeling that you get and it is very nice knowing that you will be able to give the next generation your looks and talents, I mean it is a AWESOME thing. I really think you should try because from the sounds of it, you have good money (better than i make) and I still have 3 kids of my own. And let me tell you, I don't know what I would ever do with out them. I hope you are able to fix things.
I'm in the same situation as you - same age, financially independent and never wanted kids. The only way I would compromise is to adopt a school-age child. I don't like babies at all. It's his bad for thinking you would change your mind (why do they always think that???)...
If adopting a school-age child isn't going to work for you or him, then you really need to do some talking. Hopefully you have a prenup (i'm sure you do if you're anything like me!!). Good luck.
