Yes, I realize that I have been married a while now.
Yes, I realize that I am not getting any younger, and neither is my husband.
Yes, I understand that you are never "ready" to have a baby.
It would be a perfect time to have a baby since all of your friends are having babies. Just think, they could all grow up together.
These are all things I have heard since the day Dave and I were married. Yes, I want a family, I can't wait to feel that baby growing inside of me. But I also realize that my husband and I are not in a position where we feel ready. While you are never ready to have a baby, it's a leap of faith that you have to trust in, I can be better prepared.
I hav spent the better part of my adult life working with children whose parents weren't ready, in financial difficulties and in bad marriages or wound up alone. I have seen how diffcult that is. It scares the hell out of me.
So, until I reach the point where I am ready, BACK THE FUCK OFF. Thank you and Good day.
