Hi everyone, I’m 29 (F) and my husband is 30 (M). We’ve been together for thirteen years, and I truly love him to death he’s smart, funny, ambitious, supportive, and just an all-around amazing person. We recently started talking about having kids and plan to begin trying this month, but honestly, I’m terrified.
Whenever I scroll through TikTok or other social media, I constantly see women saying how awful motherhood is—that it ruins your life and that no one should do it. The reason we waited so long is because we wanted to focus on building our careers first; he’s a detective and I’m a social worker.
What advice or perspectives do you have for first-time parents? Do you feel like it’s really worth it?
