I am so happy for "whoops" babies or I would not have been able to adopt my 3 kids. |
IUD failure. Obsessed with her ![]() |
Sure. I knew a few growing up and my mother reported that mid 40s abortion in the neighborhood was not insignificant amongst her friends, so yeah. |
No, just happy! ![]() |
NP here, I did this for years. I didn't want to get pregnant. |
Yeah, sure. ![]() |
But having just one is SO much easier than 3.
I had a rare morning of just getting 1 ready for a doctor appointment and never felt so productive and organized and on time in my life. You just don’t realize it unless you have more kids. |
I’ve done this too, for the same reason. Not fun to use a condom every time (or to take a pill every day) but I really didn’t want to get pregnant. I’m one of those extremely fertile ones who got pregnant first time trying twice, don’t want that to happen again so we’re extra cautious. |
I was told my literal world experts there was no way whatsoever that I could get pregnant. I've heard a number of similar stories. Is my surprise baby BS and my fault? Sucks to have IF for years and then deal with people like you on top of it. |
You’ve got me. No snark intended. I am super jealous of 3-kid families but my husband says no to EVERYTHING and expects a lot of persuasion to say yes. I have 2 and the process costed me years of life. I am jealous because a whoops baby would never happen to me. Not a chance. |
This is legit lol |
Your kids were planned You did not suddenly find out you were adopting and have a baby arrive in your home |
You misunderstand PP. She’s saying other people’s whoops babies whom they then place for adoption allowed her to adopt them |
DH was a surprise baby, and his mom was 46 when she had him. |
It took 9 months to complete the paperwork and meet my kid(s). Same amount of time it took you to decide whether to carry the pregnancy, or terminate it, or place for adoption. I doubt any baby suddenly "arrives". Or are you one of those women in the news who gave birth but never knew she was pregnant? |
