Family Planning

Re: Family Planning

:k:

When I was in high school…I didn’t know much about pregnancy, labor/delivery, or even raising kids. In my la-la world…I was convinced that I wanted 4-6 kids.

Now that I’m fully aware of all the pregnancy “issues”, have read about all the things that are “normal”(and not so normal!) during the actual birth (including watching a video of a episiotomy like an idiot!)…not to mention recovering from a birth…and taking care of a baby…:hinna: Heck I’m not even 100% sure I want 1! :bummer:

Kiwi: Start reading up on pregnacy, labor/delivery, and taking are of newborn/toddlers. Along with articles, start visiting various pregnancy/family forums (makeupalley has a great one) where women discuss their experiences in detail. Heck you can even watch birthing videos online. Forget about actually having a baby…first find out ALL the details and see if you still want to try for 4. :smiley:
