Nahh it's something I've already decided on!

my pet peeve is that 'youll have your own kids one day' thing (not meaning to cause offence to you). When I say that I'm not having them. It's like I'm some freak of nature because I'm not having children. If I could afford it, I've have the op just to shut people up!

Is not a dig at you. Is more people who give me the condescending look like I mustn't know what I'm talking about kind of thing. Argh!


I asked if you had kids & you said no..... you didn't say no never.
I know of lots of women who think they don't want kids then a few years down the line they decide they do.

If you don't want to have kids ever than thats your decision & good for you. Not everyone is cut out to have kids.

I always thought i didn't want kids until i was 28 yrs old..... got pregnant at 20 & nearly died when the doctor told me i was already 11wks pregnant.

8 years later & i've had 5 babies already

:laugh:

I never got broody seeing babies or anything & even considered being a nun once :laugh: ..... and look at me now, love kids, love being pregnant & want more babies :laugh:

lol rather you than me :D But is good cause you enjoy being a mum and you come across as a caring unselfish person, so that's good.

I used to be a baby photographer. Ain't much better birth control than that! Was a relief not having to take those things home with me, they were enough stress for a few hours a day!! Some of them can be cute, though.

I can't bear the thought of being pregnant. I had a scare a while back and just the prospect of it scared the life out of me. I would probably cause myself a lot of damage if I was pregnant :( Is one of my biggest fears.

I know of 2 women who've both had 1 baby each.
Both have said that they will never have another baby.

Neither had any complications or anything but they both hated being pregnant so much that they've said they'll never do it again.

For me despite all my problems & despite the odds of 40% of having another abruption..... i love being pregnant.
Its such an amazing feeling & i love every minute of it even when i have painful SPD i don't complain cos i always feel lucky to be pregnant & for my baby to be ok.

As long as you are happy in your self then thats all that matters.
I love having kids & you don't, i hate only fools & horses :laugh: but loads of people love it..... everyone is different.

I'd tell everyone to pi$$ off if they nagged me..... although i get the opposite. I get my family telling me not to get pregnant because it causes 'them' too much stress :smug:

I totally get where you're coming from. I love mine dearly, but they're a right pain in the arse sometimes, and they completely take over your life. You can't go on holiday with just your partner, unless you have a nanny or very kind parents. My parents aren't reliable and my wife's mum is disabled, so we haven't spent a night alone without the kids in nearly nine years!


thats true, i'm 19 and don't even let my parents go on holiday without me just in case i miss out on something! LOL

although they just about managed to in september lol
