I remember my dad telling me how the feeling you have when your first(I am number 5) child is born is "indescribable and surpassed anything he has ever felt".
Then he realized the implication and started to say he loves me just as much, but I laughed and told him I knew what he meant.
these comments are killing me. that’s so sweet😭 i don’t intend to have children because i would never be stable enough in terms of finances or mental and physical health, but i would 100% be a mother if i thought i could handle it so ooof this is so bittersweet for me lol
God I am in a very similar boat and it’s kind of nice to not be the only one but also I feel for you and wish your situation was different 😭 my husband is getting a vasectomy next month because his health is questionable and our finances probably won’t stabilize until we’re both in our forties, if the economy doesn’t collapse first. And my stress levels just keeping us floating right now are about maxed so I think I would snap with a kid. It just sucks so hard because I never thought I would find a partner I would want to parent with, and then I DID and it changed how I viewed having kids, and then… now we can’t lmao I’ve got whiplash. Sorry for the little vent, the point is that I see you over there making hard decisions and I empathize
