Yes, to clarify the reason why I asked if you were married, it was to inquire how committed the relationship is long term. You are right, some people can carry on long-term relationships without being married. The fact of being married, however, does imply a level of commitment. If you are not married, and truly want a baby, why do you stay in this relationship? You love this person, but they don't want a baby? Seems to me that is a fundamental difference between you and your partner. If you can't get past it, and come to an agreeable solution without "falling accidentally" (regardless of what it means to you), maybe maybe you need to do some soul searching and decide how important this relationship is to you and how important it is to have another baby.
What do you think? And yes, we are thinking out loud. We welcome your "thinking", but don't be offended if we are shocked by your suggestion of "falling by accident." It's dishonest, anyway you put it. In an adult relationship, it's not healthy. We are not doctors, so you can take it or leave it as you feel you need to do.
Take care~
