several reasons. i’ve never imagined having kids with a vanilla so i always wondered what would happen to my partners and i’s dynamic after having kids? im all for sacrifices but this is a big one!
2.) childbirth in itself seems pretty traumatic. i hear about postpartum, depression, and bd. i don’t think i could put myself through that.
3.) taking on the pressure of hiding this from a child their entire life? :\
4.) i want to enjoy my young adulthood: i couldn't wait to move out of my parents house and live this out the way intended. cutting my time short seems silly! i really enjoy my new found freedom: keeping sippy cups in the cupboard, impulsively babbling, changing my diaper where ever i please. having a child would only get in the way of all of that.
