Girls, when were you absolutely sure you wanted to have a child?

[Natasha1995]

I mean, being with the right partner is very important. So is the biological clock ticking.

For those of you who are mothers, or thinking about children, what made you decide? It's probably one of the most important decisions we make in our lives.

I was positive I never wanted to have kids probably around 16 or so. My cousins were having kids and as much as they loved those babies, they were incredibly draining on them. My second cousin was maybe 2 or 3 at the time for my 20-something cousin, and we watched how he laughed as he shoved an entire piece of pizza into his mouth only for his dad to sigh and put his fingers in his mouth to get it out so his kid wouldn’t choke. He did that on purpose, and had repeatedly done so. That alone was an exhausting enough image for me to say “yeah, I’m never giving birth.”

When I was with my husband, fiance then, I knew he is the real partner to have kids with.

It was some feeling I had.

[Natasha1995]

Talking to my friends, most of them say it's a feeling, a realization that "now is the time". More than a logical decision.

@Natasha1995
True, it's more as a feeling but some logic too

I knew when I was a very young girl, age 6, that I wanted to be a good mother someday and have 4 children. Two boys and 2 girls.

I finally became a Mom at age 23. I got married when I was 20.

I absolutely love 💕 being a Mom. I'm a terrific 💯 👍🏼 Mom, and I still love it.

I loved everything about it. I can't say that there were some downsides because there weren't any.

My son and I are still buddies❣️

Love, love, love being a Mom.😊

I've always been sure I wanted children, I've just never been sure when the right time was lol But everybody who I've ever talked to on the topic said that you never truly feel ready.

[Nikki1989]

I decided at the age of 20 to never have kids, and I have never wavered from that. I like kids; I just don't want them myself.

[RandomGirl42]

Likewise.

It’s my clock ticking, not any particular man

[Natasha1995]

You're absolutely right. Still, I think the choice of a partner is important as well. Maybe I'm too romantic.

@Natasha1995
I’m looking 👀 for the right person

[Rimaisme]

Maybe it's strange but I've always been more away from having the child, and it's more scary than the need

I'm not there yet :)
