Are most children unplanned?

Question

Let's be foreal, for the most part, it's not as common to have people plan a child, I'm not saying people aren't like "if it happens then it happens" cause thats how i think most unplanned children happen but nobody is fucking like "I CAN FEEL IT THAT THIS TIME IS THE TIME WE MAKE LITTLE BILLY" while doing the dirty, so technically if it catches someone off guard then it's unplanned, so how often does it happen where people are having sex with the highest hopes that it will be the time the miracle of life begins? Lol

In a sense, I think so.

No one can truly plan for children, you can educate yourself on being a warm, nurturing, kind soul, plan the places to go on vacation, also fertilization alternatives however nothing can truly prepare you for the gift of having a child. You can in your head the name of the child, age you want to be to have one, etc. however plans can always change due to dating, marriage, personal strife, job changes, etc. Most children are unplanned by design since life is spontaneous, if I were to give a tip let it be this: Have children once you are mentally, emotionally, and financially stable or else life will be knocked out of gear real quick. Another tip, teach them to be open & kind to others even if they are diverse/different since in the future they might work in a cubicle in an office or a nurse catering to patients or even a policeman willing to risk everything on the line to protect and serve it is important they accept everyone so no one gets left behind also that they know they can count on others for help while also giving help to those that really need it. Thank you.

No, we totally let nature take it's course. We did not wait until we had X amount of money in the bank or that I had a specific income or we lived in a certain kind of house. My wife's doctor said that it was refreshing to see somebody with that attitude because most of his patients were just the opposite. They had to plan everything. People actually had kids 4 years apart so they would not be in college at the same time. It was determined that my wife would need a C-section and the doctor wanted to schedule it. We wanted to wait until she went into labor. We did not even want to know the gender of our babies.

My mother tells me how I was unplanned and how shocked my father was that I was being born. He also had the same reaction to my 2 other siblings despite being MARRIED to one of the women. I’ve never understood this, lol. Like I understand shocked and surprise, but it sounded completely unexpected. I’m like, what do you expect when raw dogging women? lol. One was even trying for a baby and he was still in shock about having a kid.. haha

My parents planned both me and my sister.
I mean, they really wanted to have two children and I really wanted a sibling.
Although it took a long time for my sister to be born (we have 12 and a half years of difference).
As for your question, I think you are onto something I think a large amount of children are unplanned.
As for the data I have no clue, I have never researched it/looked it up.

All the pregnancies I have known were planned. I have a friend that planned it so precisely that her two kids have birthdays on the same date.

In my opinion, the act of parting your thighs and admitting the meat missile is planning to have a kid.

NathanDavis · Answer

my parents only planned my older brother, their first...

I was a "dammit!!' surprise

my younger brother was a welcome surprise...

so, one out three were planned... lol, not to confuse with unexpected, because it was kind of obvious, the one thing they definitely planned was to stop at three children, that for sure

7Phoenix7 · Answer

I wasn't planned lmao. I was the 3rd child and the only one unexpected hahaha

SeriouslyNotSerious · Answer

Not really. In our country, majority of them get married first before having a baby. After they got married, bam! A baby.. 👶

electromagnetic · Answer

I was planned for sure. I came out exactly 9 months to the date after my parents got married.

RebelinSteel · Answer

My older brother planned, they even sorted names and everything, including room, schools etc. my younger sister was planned and similar to our brother, I sort of slipped the the net and was not really expected. Everyone knows this as well, so plenty piss taking goes on.

I planned it by finding my ovulation cycle. It happened on the 2nd cycle. First tine we had a small window to get his boys in there and they got lost?

MrOracle · Answer

I'm the oldest of 4 kids, and only the last one was unplanned - my mother had an IUD in the mid 70s that was pulled from the market due to a disastrously high failure rate, as as a result, I got a second sister.

My mother and her best friend decided to get pregnant together, but my dad apparently didn't get the job done the first month and I was born a month after my godmother's son was born.

I wish they weren’t but probably. We don’t teach family planning (or sex ed) as much as we should
