I am bored & trying to catch up with the boards & came across this thread...
I understand how a lot of people dont want to have kids however I do have one and this is just my experience..
I too did not care to have kids nor did I want one...I fell in love & was engaged almost a year when I found out I was pregnant. I was so upset & mad that I cried for hours & then I started to see the light...I was having a mini ME!
The further my pregnancy progressed the more excited I was to becoming a mother..My whole outlook on moms have changed drastically since PJ entered this world. The love is beyond the greatest & there is no other love or greater reward then having a bad day & having my son wrap his tiny arms around my neck & just love on me! Its pretty amazing how that feels! No matter what I do, he always is smiling & I know he loves me unconditionally!
Just because you do not want to be a mom doesnt make you selfish, self-centered, or even a bad person..everyone is different and nobody should be looked bad upon being or not wanting to be a parent. I know for me I totally hated the idea of being a mom & now I wouldnt trade my son for anything!
Happy Belated Mothers Day to anyone else that happens to be a parent!
