Baby Itch is Gone

Holy cow.  I just spent 4 hours with a group of 16 4-5 year olds, and my only help was a high school girl who spent more time texting than with the kids.  H and I know we want to wait several years before kids, but I started having that 'wouldn't it be awesome to be a parent' thought go through my head.  It's officially gone after this afternoon.  Watching other people's kids might be the best birth control ever.

 Time for dinner and then some couch time...

Re: Baby Itch is Gone

  • I hear ya. I work with young kids all day and sometimes I think I am crazy for wanting kids (in a few years, too) and having to deal with what parents do. But I know it is very rewarding as well.

  • Kids are the best form of birth control.  Whenever I get the urge to have a kid, I borrow a friends child for the day.  A group of 4-5 year olds can be hectic.  I used to work at a pre-k and got my fill with groups of 20-30 all day, everyday.  Finally, I need somebody to talk back to me, haha.  Most important thing is, you survived!
  • Im willing to loan my 2 & 4 year old out to anyone with the itch to use as birth control.

    H & I want another one badly because he wants one thats biologically his, but our kids wear us out & that reminds me to take my pill every night.

  • Even seeing a little kid tires me out, never mind babysitting or doing child care of many small people.
  • Ha. Welcome to my every day. That is the age group I work with. They're fun huh?

  • I would really love a child with H but he has 2 and I have 1 and they are all under the age of 5! He says he wants to start trying in a year, I vote more like 2 years! Those 3 wear me out!
