[quote=Anonymous]DH and I were pretty big fence-riders. We TTC'd for 5 months. Then we were like "WTF are we doing?!" and stopped. Thank goodness I didn't get pregnant then. I went on 3 years of birth control (Nexplanon) and then we'll make a permanent decision. I'd say we're both pretty heavily leaning towards staying childfree. I feel like if I wanted a kid, now is the time - the older I get, the less appealing it gets. I felt a lot of relief once we stopped, to be honest. The book "The Baby Decision" has been helpful for me. It was done in the 1980's and is out of print, but many libraries can get it for you through inter library loan. It's an awesome book full of exercises to get to your true feelings on the topic. Non-judgmental either way, not pro or anti. There's a good Dear Sugar column too, something like "The Ghost Ship that didn't Sail" or similar. [/quote]
