[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Start now, especially if you want 2-3. I'm surprised as a nurse that you aren't informed about fertility. [/quote] Op here. I am well aware that it gets harder to have a child after 35, but many women do. As a nurse, I've seen many healthy pregnancies, with the moms being as old as 42. We are in a generation where many women are having their children later. Having a child after 35 increases risks, but every complications can happen with any age. I am not going to be scared into those statistics. [/quote] Perhaps you aren't ready or actually do not want kids. It's worth maybe speaking to a therapist.[/quote] Op here. Thank you for all of the responses! I very much want to be a mother, but I think waiting until I finish school seems more reasonable. I think work, school, and a baby will be tough. I do agree with some of posters who said I need to talk to my DH and be on the same page. I think waiting a year and having a child around graduation will work better. I am okay with two. My DH wants 3-4 but I am fine with 2, maybe 3. Who knows what he future holds. To the other poster who rudely dismissed my profession as not being hard. CRNA is very similiar to becoming an anesthesiologists. It's difficult, but we all have our own opinions. It's likely you're just ignorant because you don't know anything about the job. To the other poster - I am set back because I had another career, but who cares? Some people change professions several times over a lifetime. There is nothing wrong with me deciding my past career was not for me, and pursuing something I'm passionate about. [/quote]
