I am still of 'childbearing' age however I would much rather regret NOT having kids than regret having them and be stuck in a life I hate.This is a very personal question but if anyone on here is in this position and wouldn't mind to answer... Has anyone got past the age of being able to have kids, and never had them due to being undecided? Like has time just passed by for you, and now it's too late, and if so how do you feel? Have you felt regret?
It's one thing that sticks in my head, getting past the age of being able to have kids and not having them only to have such regrets later in life. I also worry that a partner may decide to remarry/move on to someone who can give them kids if they were to change their mind once you were no longer able to![]()
If you have worries of a partner leaving you to have kids then you need to have a very frank and honest conversation about what you both want out of life.
If you are not 100% sure on kids, don't do it. You can't return them. I only know a few people with kids, and honestly while they love their kids there is no question that it is hard and they have all warned me not to!
