[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I totally disagree with the PPs who say this makes you unfit to be a parent. [b]It is normal and understandable to want to look good and to worry about uncontrollable impacts on your looks.[/b] I worried about this and it's one reason among many that I am done at one child. I came out completely unscathed by sheer luck, genetics, and because I gave birth on the young side. But I won't risk it again - even some of my fittest, thinnest friends have stretch marks and loose abs.[/quote] The bolded is true - but that's not what the OP is asking. She genuinely wonders whether it's worth it to have children, if that means a negative impact on her appearance. I've enjoyed a lot of the perks that come with being attractive and it literally never occurred to me that those are more important than the experience of having children. Comparing the value of my looks to that my children isn't even worth mentioning.[/quote]
