Author darby1 Posted March 28, 2009 Author Posted March 28, 2009 People aren't putting pressure on you to have kids within the next 6 years: biology is. I'm in my 30s and still don't have kids, but I'm under no illusions that the window of opportunity will remain open until whenever I'm ready; I know I need to have kids within the next few years or my chances of conceiving will be severely reduced. I really hope you don't wait thinking that you have plenty of time, and then find yourself 40 and unable to conceive... I'm really not worried about being able to conceive. My Mother had my little brother at 39yrs old and he turned out just fine. not to mention I am interested in adoption too. I just wonder if a day will come that I actually want to conceive and be financially able to. I don't trust men at all to depend on for anything long term.. which is weird that I'm like that because I have a wonderful father who I've only ever found to be completely dependable. I just believe that if I am ever to conceive and be the mother I would want to be, I have to be prepared for the go it alone possibility. My child will not be stuck in a poor position of his/her future because daddy bailed. I'm not trusting a man with my child's future. I am so tainted by my experiences with men outside of my father, I refuse to pretend I can trust today's man. I know happy people in great relationships, so I know this is not true for everyone. I just haven't seen it intimately in my world. I have close guy friends and even the one's with girlfriends.. they cheat, only she will never know and nor does she care to. So it all just looks like a bunch of lies to me.
