[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It does affect it but I know a LOT of women who thought they were infertile and stopped using birth control, then got pregnant. I don't have PCOS but had 3 miscarriages and went on to have a healthy, beautiful child. Bumps in the road to conception are normal for even healthy young women.

However, looking at the big picture -- there are AMAZING things about being child-free. Carefully, critically think about *why* you want to be a parent. I am a mom and I chose that, but I stopped at one for a reason. I deeply miss/grieve my pre-kid life in some ways, and spend a lot of energy time and sometimes money to replicate it as much as I possibly can. [/quote]

Well OP wants kids so presumably he has already thought about it. Also not everyone needs to know “why.” [b]People have been having kids for thousands of years without asking why and it worked out fine[/b]. [/quote]

Disagree. The "narcissist"/emotionally immature/abusive parents you read about are parents who should have been more introspective. It is a good, healthy thing for society if more people think critically about this choice. Go read reddit.com/r/regretfulparents if you need to be convinced.

I DID want a kid, had a kid and we are happy, but if my husband had been infertile I would have given him the world's biggest hug and accepted him. Not asked an anonymous forum if I should dump him. OP needs to get a grip. Kids aren't everything and are often a huge stressor in life [/quote]
