[quote=Anonymous]Took a step back from friends with babies. Traveled. Did volunteer work and side hustles and leaned in at work in ways I wouldn't have with a kid. Did some therapy. Hiked a lot. A few years on, with several possible routes to parenthood attempted and now ceased, things are better. Sometimes I am sad. Sometimes I am relieved. I think my friends who did have kids also sometimes wonder about the road not taken; that's only natural. We now have good relationships with some of our friends' kids and relatives and I can enjoy them for themselves instead of hurting that we don't have our own kids. I also do volunteer work and donate money to help kids in my community figuring if we don't have our own we can help the kids who do exist. Good luck op. I hope you find peace however things turn out.[/quote]
