Yes but what you get in return is the most precious gift ever.

Luckily for me I did not gain any weight besides 17 pounds, which was baby and water. I actually weigh less now then I did before I was pregnant. I was 135 before, now I am 123. I am VERY happy lol. It made me chose to eat right, which has helped a lot. I now exercise and no longer consume Taco Bell day after day after day. My skin is smoother, I feel more energetic and happy. It has changed me for the better, and just makes me love my son even more. If only he knew how much he has changed me.

I eventually want to have children.... but I can't stand them when they reach my age.

I always hear, oh I can't beleive you aren't trying for another baby. Excuse me, but i think a few miscarriages are enough for me! I guess I am so selfish because I do not want to give Dylan a brother or sister, so he's going to be alone all his life. How sad.

Give me a break. My sons got it good!

He's got a PETTING ZOO! Who needs siblings?!

LOL No kidding. We are looking into getting something new now as well. Dan wants a bird, but I really miss having guinea pigs. I think I am going to retire breeding ratties for a little while, until we are moved. I really want the company of another pet, especially a piggy. However Dan doesn't like piggies because they are noisy.


So I am looking into another hedgie, possibly an albino or cinnamon. Or ...........Wolfchan will like this, a SNAKE! LOL

Call me crazy, but none of this sounds the least bit appealing to me.

No thanks, I think I'll pass.

You would have made such a good mother and with your high IQ , artistic talent and naturally blond hair(Until 24 then it turned stark white) the child would have been perfect.
Well I didn't feel like playing genetic roulette-and why have a child just to satisfy someone's curiosity.

There was an article some years ago- Ann Landers asked how many people if they could do it over would have children- 82% said they wouldn't!!

I believe I read about that Ann Lander's survey (in the 70's) in my book "I'm Okay, You're A Brat"... and I think the correct figure was 70% out of 10,000 readers said they would NOT do it over again.

I do not regret my decision never to have children - and I never will.

I just have to jump in here with a true story that happened years ago.

I'm big, I've always been big and always will be. A new employee started work here as receptionist and on her second day of work she asked me when my baby was due.

Being the prankster that I am, I quickly calculated and said "November". She then said congratulations and I told her that I was quite concerned because I did not know who the baby's father was.

"My baby might be white, black or asian. I guess I'll just have to wait to find out."

Well, with that comment her mouth flew open wide and she turned around in disgust as if to say "how could I be so irresponsible...."

She still works here and I'm sure she still thinks I'm pregnant....

I love playing the game with nosey looky-loos.......

ROTFL Slick!! That's hillarious!!

[Soledad]

Slick that is too @#$%&*@ funny!!!!

[ILoveReptiles]

*snerk* HAHAHAHA! Hilarious!

[GoldenRetrLuver]

LOL!

I usally don't mind "human kids", but I would never want to have any. Just Fur- kids for me!

[wolfsoul]

Haha, luckies, we're the same weight! LOL

I'm not by any means saying that I hate children, but there are times when I don't like them, mostly meaning my brother and my cousins. I just think that having children would be stressful for me. I plan on feeding my dogs home cooked meals, you know how much that will cost?! I can definatly not afford to have children, nor do I think I'll have the time. Of course, I still have years to think it over, settle down with someone, and maybe -- just maybe I might have a child. But it will really depend on who I'm with, if he is financially stable, if he will have the time to do stuff with the pets while I'm puking my guts out, that sort of thing.

This thread is highly entertaining to me. Just reading about the different stories and funny remarks

Andrew and I have been married for 2 years now and know that we do not want children. I do not HATE children, but I do not find them appealing to me or my lifestyle. As PCB said, bad children are a result of bad parenting. But why should the public have to be inconvenienced by a child just because his/her parents are inconvenienced?

My mother gives me heck for not wanting children. She says I would make a great Mom. Having kids was very fulfilling for both my parents. But having children isn't for everyone. Call me selfish, but I do not care to have more responsibilities than I already have! I like my life as it is. I do not have the patience nor the desire. Andrew and I travel alot and have a very active lifestyle. A child would change that! Andrew and I are working hard on our careers as well. When Andrew gets out of the Army, he plans on flighing commercial airlines. A child needs to have both parents involved and we can not offer that!

Why should people have to sit in a theater and hear someone's baby crying during the movie? Get a sitter! Can't get one, stay at home. You made the choice to have the child, don't inconvenience everyone else because of it! Same thing with resturants, airplanes, malls, etc...

I grew up overseas and traveled every summer with my parents to America to visit family. My brothers and I were given meds to help us sleep on the long flights across the ocean. My mom didn't want us to bother everyone on the flight. Kids can get fidgety and annoying on a place (well behaved or not). We weren't taken to a resturant until we were old enough to behave around people and respect their right to have a peaceful meal! If we were anywhere and began to go crazy, my parents removed us and themselves from the place!

I applaud couples who want children. And just as I respect their decision to have kids, I want them to respect mine not to have any. It take lots of patience and sacrifice. But sadly, there are more bad parents than there are good. I do not mind being around children when they behave. But I don't like playing with them or hane them hanging all over me. Personal decision. I do not find them disgusting. I just don't want them on me!

As for licencing pregnancy, I vote YES!! Don't get me started on that one

[Twisterdog]

LOL @ Slick!

Here's something I did similar to that. When I was pregnant with my son, I would jokingly refer to his father as the "sperm donor", as in "Oh, the sperm donor called, and we're meeting for lunch." My friends at work thought it was hilarious.

One day, this nosy lady that none of us like was stanidng near some of us and I mentioned something about "the sperm donor". Well, you could almost see her ears prick up, she was trying to hear this gossip so hard. So I elbowed one of my friends and looked in her direction. They all got it, and so we kept talking about "the sperm donor" even louder.

Sure enough, the next day, she "accidently" ran into all my friends in the halls or the bathroom and just "happened" to ask about me, and how she had never met anyone who had actually used a sperm donor, etc. One of my friends said, "You should go talk to Shanna and ask her about it, she'll be happy to tell you all about her sperm donor. Oh wait, I think she is at lunch with her husband right now." Her mouth literally dropped open.

We just messed with her head for years. Even after my son was born, we'd say something like, "Oh, I think Dylan looks just like the sperm donor, don't you?" if she was around. She would be DYING to say something, but she never did. LMAO!
