Since nobody has answered my "will I have another baby" question, I am wondering if I have asked it the wrong way or what? Just curious cause I thought I would have an answer by one of you talented lovelies by now....
Did I ask the wrong thing?

No, I don't think so; perhaps you'd have more luck if you uploaded the chart to the thread and attempt to interpret it, even if you think you're wrong.
You may have noticed a subcategory in the Horary Astrology board titled the Recycle Bin.
It's not used so much anymore, but it's but you may wish to read through the guidelines in the accompanying thread, The Purpose of this Recycle Bin.
I'll post it here for convenience:
You have fulfilled quite a few of these guidelines already; your question is clearly stated, you included the date and time at which you asked the question and the location from which you have asked it, and you even provided some background information, although perhaps a little more could have made the chart easier to interpret. The primary thing your original post is missing, then, is an attempt at interpreting the chart.
As I mentioned earlier, you don't have to be a horary expert--just begin describing the chart and write what you see, including suggestion of what all of these astrological influences could mean.
Another thing you must understand is that horary is a highly specialized branch of astrology that includes many components that natal astrology does not--or rather, these components are given extra emphasis because they affect the outcome of the chart. Many astrologers, including myself, are uncomfortable reading horary charts because a member expects an exact answer and holds you accountable if you have not interpreted the chart correctly. This would be stressful enough under normal situations, but much of the time, the questions are fairly loaded, and most astrologers are not too keen to decisively state the outcome of something so personally important to the querent (the individual who asked the question).
I compare it sometimes to working in a hospital and having to answer difficult questions from the family members of a patient in critical or unstable condition--except that I believe the job of the astrologer is even more difficult than the job of the nurse in that you are ultimately making guesses of the future, even if these are guesses based on sound astrological knowledge and techniques. I suppose you could say that a doctor or a nurse does the same thing, especially if the patient has not yet reached a critical point and is asked to make a prediction...yet although the doctor or the nurse is held highly accountable for the patient's health, he or she can't really be blamed if the patient doesn't recover because there is only so much he/she can do. Also, the "prediction" of the outcome, if it is given at all, probably will not drastically affect what the person does because all they can do is wait and see. This is difficult to convey, and I'm not sure if I'm doing a good job, but do you understand the general idea?
I am not a horary astrologer so I can't give you an interpretion, but I know that I would have to be extremely confident in my abilities to even attempt such a chart and trust in my ability let my interpretation be separate from the emotions I may feel while interpreting the chart. In other words, an astrologer's desire to see a positive outcome may cause them to see a positive outcome in the chart and support it with astrological evidence, ignoring any influences that may contradict this interpretation.
Yet this too is not good, because I do not believe it is any astrologer's intention to mislead whomever they may be advising--even if it is unintentionally. What if the astrologer said that you would become pregnant, and this did not come to pass as soon as predicted? You would most likely have your hope shattered.
Yet what if the astrologer said that you would not become pregnant? What would you do with this information? Would you take it as the ultimate truth of the Universe and stop trying to conceive? This--not the position of the stars--would seal your fate. Charts can be read incorrectly because astrologers, like the rest of us, are only human. Some may be amazingly talented and intuitive, but none are God.
Therefore, I believe that no one has yet answered your question not because they do not wish to help you, but because the answer carries such huge implications for you, your husband, and many others who are involved in your lives.
And if I remember correctly, the member pisceskitty asked a similar horary question many months ago and she thought from the chart that she would not have another child, and lo and behold, she did!
So perhaps someone will have the bravery and skill to help you, but please do not invest all of your hopes in a single chart.
