Re: Clicky poll: Imagine you find out you're pregnant
I'd be thrilled, actually, even though I'm 100% on the fence about having kids. Why? And, yes, I know this may sounds insane--- Because the worst part of this for me is making the damn decision! I've sometimes wished I'd either, 1., find out I can't have children or 2., get pregnant on accident. Since there's no great way to find out #1 without making the decision to try for kids and I'm an excellent contraceptor, neither is likely to happen.
At 32 with a stable job and marriage, I wouldn't have an abortion (in most circumstances) so the worst part (the deciding) would be over for me and I could focus on the excitement of having a kid!
The timing couldn't possibly be much worse (everything is relative, yo, clearly I'm not a teenager or in an uncommitted relationship), but I want another baby like yesterday, so I would be excited. Kevin will make an amazing dad one day (and really, already is).
I was just in this boat -- test was negative, but I was definitely freaking out. Not like upset freaking out, just that it would have been an unplanned event and physically I haven't prepared for that.
I would be excited, but this.
Freak out. Coincidentally the OB/GYN mistakenly said "We are pregnant" and NOT "We are ready" when I was at my appointment 2 weeks ago. I thought I would have an asthma attack and I do not have asthma.
I agree with most of this, after I'm done freaking out of course! I don't think I want to have kids, but sometimes I think that if I was to get pregnant, I would prefer it to be accidentally so I don't have to decide. I hate making decisions, especially one of this magnitude.
