[quote=Anonymous]OP If you are still here: You never know what having children will bring. You never know for certain how you will feel about it. After 4 years and 3 miscarriages, I finally had a beautiful baby boy. Perfect. But, for whatever reason -- bad person, I'M crazy, it took to much out of me, unhealed scars, too much work -- whatever, motherhood wasn't for me. I realized this when he turned 2. I kept waiting for the glorious love to kick in, but it never did. Fleeting through my mind was: I am sure someone would love to adopt this baby...
Now fast forward 18 years (sorry, long) He is a great kid. He is everything you would want in a son. I am so proud of him. BUT, it just never did happen for me. Motherhood just wasn't my thing at all. I know that some of you have said, so easy for you to say, when you have your longed for kid. Well, I have my kid, but it just wasn't for me.
So there is that -- maybe does not and won'r ever apply to you.
But in one last story, I was with a friend who told me, I could have done right without having kids. I was like Wahts? You are the best and most devoted mom ever.[/quote]
