Nature. When did it last tell you you should reproduce?
Just the other day I saw my husband holding his nephew in a picture from the wedding, and I desperately wanted to take him upstairs and get started. This one's for you. | |

we are the same age. i hope my eggs aren't old and rotten. but i bet they are I read an article in Time magazine. Time is a pretty reputable mag right? Anyway...the article said that a woman's fertility peaks at age 27 and goes down from there. By the time a woman reaches 40 90% of her eggs are chromosomally abnormal (according to the article). There are always exceptions to EVERY rule though. Crap, now I feel bad. I'm sorry. | |

They are just pure sugar. They are so luscious. The only totally sucky part is when they don't sleep through the night, but I was lucky in that dept. I didn't have to suffer too long. They don't stay little long enough. My kids were big when they were born and came out wearing 6 month sized clothes. The first year flies by. | |

I don't even know if I want kids, but I hate that the option is pretty much gone for me now, unless I happen to get married in the next year. It's depressing. |

That's just stupid old Time magazine. What do they know anyway...Like I said, there are plenty of women who have healthy babies into their late thirties. If you are depressed about it you can rent mine for a week and then you'll change your mind. | |

And most of my life I haven't planned on having any. But every so often biology kicks me in the head and I have to think about it again. |

Well we wanted to( have another child) roughly about 3 yrs ago,right after me and hubby got married so that we would have a child together, but previous circumstances being what they were I had my tubes tied 5 yrs before that..we checked into having a reversal, but then when we started looking into the overall pic, we have 6 children already total (I had 2, he had 3 and a step daughter), and considering in all reality within 5-8 yrs our kids would be having kids, we would have a baby to play with..lol..and since the youngest of our children will be 9 in July, we still have at least another 9 yrs of at least one child at home, and by the time Hampton graduates high school, we'll be almost 50.If we had had another child, by the time they graduated we'd be closer to 60..we decided that we wouldn't do the reversal..just enjoy the children and grandchildren ( which by the way we'll have one in Sept) and then take time and enjoy US.. ..btw I had Hamp when I was 29..

Nature is beautiful.
We may hate and loathe it at the time, but nature's choice wins and what we produce, we cannot at all send it back aand it is such a gift, who can complain? | |

You know, sometimes I have this feeling about needing a relationship like I'm on my last 2 eggs and I need to make a baby Don't know if it's that proverbial biological clock or not but I can't even imagine what it must be like when you have an actual womb! 2010: Healing the Wounds of the Past.... http://prince.org/msg/8/325740 | |

It's hell I tell ya. Hormones are a bitch. They trick you into creating devil spawn and then you get fat and your skin stretches out. | |

Never, but I'm only 22. I have time to make those babies later. I also need to find a man | |

I still remember the very first time it told me to. I almost fell out of my chair- I was 34- very close to 35 yrs old.
It was a crazy feeling when it came over me because I had never in my life felt that before. I will forever remember that moment and the conversation that ensued. Though I am 36 now and probably too old...guess I missed the boat. Ohhh the question was when did it last tell me to..... | |

I dont know about nature but just on Friday this nail spa owner told me I better get to having another child and not to wait too long bacasue when I reach 35 my bones will get weak and it will be too hard for me to carry a baby after that age. I laughed and she just looked at me with a serious face and told "im serious" Rhythm floods my heart♥The melody it feeds my soul | |
