[quote=Anonymous]Childfree 33 year old here. I mention that because I am in no way a baby-pusher. But I think it's insane that you'd wait if you know for sure you want kids, and especially that you want 2 - 3. The CRNA program will be there later if it's too hard with a newborn or while pregnant. Just because you're open to adoption doesn't mean it's always a possibility. Adopting a healthy infant gets harder every year as unwanted pregnancy drops, and many children that are slightly older but physically healthy may have serious emotional trauma from the circumstances that led to them being placed for adoption at a slightly older age. How will you react if you can't pursue your career because of health or emotional needs of your children, whether biological or adopted? I'm a big believer in putting having kids first ahead of career once you know you want them. Not to mention, every year you delay having children is a year less of their lives you'll get to enjoy when you are older. [/quote]
