My mom has always said you can never really plan a baby, there's always something that'd get in the way. I guess sometimes you just have to close your eyes and dive off the deep end. It's a wonder the world is as populated as it is actually ;) Although clearly all that means is not everyone is thinking as hard about this as we are!<BR/><BR/>@tamara - haha, you really do have ages to go till you have to worry about kids and if you want them or not. I think the biological clock can be a scary thing, truly.<BR/><BR/>@louisa - yep, you are right. Here's hoping life does come together in the end!<BR/><BR/>@jenty - that's such a wonderful thing to hear ... gives me hope that being a little older will benefit my kids too :)phillygirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16618315315456011985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9048455495603621899.post-57497451575866847272009-02-07T08:56:00.000+02:002009-02-07T08:56:00.000+02:00LOL, loved this ramble.

It's good to know...I enjoyed reading your "ramble". It's good to know that other people think too much about things and worry.<BR/><BR/>I'm only 24, but because I've been married for over two years, people keep asking when we're going to have kids. And I'm terrified that I will never develop the desire to have children.<BR/><BR/>I think about being a mother in an abstract sort of way... like a dream of someone else's life. But when I think about actually giving birth, raising a child and committing to being a mom for the rest of my life... The thought makes me queasy.<BR/><BR/>Maye I'll get over it one day (people keep assuring me I will), but in over-thinker fashion, I worry now that I won't. And that there's something wrong with me if I have no motherly instinct.<BR/><BR/>Wow... now that was a ramble.Tamarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13875207633073348136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9048455495603621899.post-15963630070581767212009-02-06T11:02:00.000+02:002009-02-06T11:02:00.000+02:00Doll I have these dilemmas ALL the time.As I menti...Doll I have these dilemmas ALL the time.<BR/>As I mentioned in one of my posts this week, sometimes I love MM so much I think: I want a ring and a ceremony! Other times I think: holy crap, please can we never speak about marriage! IT'S FOREVER!<BR/><BR/>Sometimes I think I would have to fall pregnant by accident because if I gave it enough thought, I'd probably chicken out.<BR/><BR/>I guess there's no right way!boldly bennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408610080293952966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9048455495603621899.post-24834946929792569392009-02-06T09:36:00.000+02:002009-02-06T09:36:00.000+02:00You've hit 2 nails on the head for me there.I turn...You've hit 2 nails on the head for me there.<BR/><BR/>I turned 27 in December and for some reason I too feel like I'm still 22, but life keeps on reminding me that's not so... then the realisation hits, that the big 30 looms.<BR/><BR/>Then there's the baby bit. I think I've reached a point in my life where my maternal instincts are kicking in at autopilot and I'm left feeling so broody. However, the thought of actually having a kid freaks the bejeezus out of me in so many ways, all at the same time.<BR/><BR/>I guess this over-thinking comes with age :PNielfa Hanifahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02261909718844756640noreply@blogger.com
