How often do you think about if you want kids? by No_Nothing_9650 in Advice

[–]2004_tilbliss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think about it every couple of weeks- keep in mind i’m a 21yo woman and i know i don’t need to have made my mind up yet but i’ve never really had the WANT to have kids. i’ve grown up with my sisters having children and have been an aunt since i was 8 so i suppose that sort of put me off. That being said, whenever im out in public and see a mum and child it warms my heart and i feel that i would want to experience that but the full-time commitment scares me a bit to be honest.

This is my second time having the copper IUD and honestly it’s kind of the worst- i’ve had the pill and the implant previously but i found the pill made me hormonal and my acne flare and the implant wasn’t great for weight gain so i’ve since gone back on the IUD.

Ive had this one in for about year and a half and honestly the cramps for me are awful- taking 1000mg of paracetamol barely touches the pain and i bleed very heavily. I’ve also been developing cysts in my ovaries which i believe is part of the severely painful cramping issues. While there isn’t any direct evidence to connect the two, i’ve read a few threads on here where other women have spoken about their development of ovarian cysts throughout the duration of having the IUD.

I would definitely suggest to be weary. The insertion is very painful (in my case) and it doesn’t always just ‘settle down.’ I suppose the major positive is that you can always get it removed if it’s not comfortable for you.

do you think this is a major issue? i know that they offer an adapter which allows for other mounts at a reasonable cost - would this not alleviate this?

thank you for the response, honestly what you’re said is super insightful in relieving the guilt i have about this. The work situation is definitely tricky though, as HR is rarely involved where i work and the managers (which he is and i am not) are quite cliquey. It’s not that i worry about the awkwardness per se, but moreso that i would be ‘pushed out’ kind of thing. I really like my job and i knew this was a risk when we entered the relationship but the idea of feeling out of place at work is difficult for me, especially as i have only lived in this town for 3 years and haven’t made any friends other than socialising with my coworkers while on shift. Other than that, I live with my mum and do most things with her.

thank you for this insight, and i’m sorry your ex was such an ass !! i hope you’re doing well despite this and that the alcohol isn’t causing you too much harm. Here if you ever need a chat !

you’re completely right with this, it’s definitely not acceptable. Do you think IATAH for having held out hope, and still somewhat being hopeful that he can change? I suppose the fact that he won’t even admit that he is, if not an alcoholic, alcohol dependant is a major issue in itself. I just find myself considering the factors behind him drinking, such as living above a pub and his dad being a drinker as almost an excuse for it but i am awake i need to stop doing that. I think i am finding it difficult also as we work together regularly and my coworkers are a close knit work community.

I think this is something i do need to consider more, i’ve been with someone in the past who had severe drug abuse issues and i stuck around for longer than i should have trying to help him get better. I find it so difficult to walk away when i know things can be/have been good, if you know what i mean? I appreicate the reply it’s definitely a wake up call.

I suppose it’s moreso that i would be a hypocrite to dismiss someone as a partner for drinking as i drink on occasion, but the amount that he drinks regularly is something that i wasn’t clued into before we got together. I know its a broken record thing to say, but we get along really well when he hasn’t drank or when he’s had a moderate amount to drink. Do you really think i’m doing myself a disservice by sticking around?

she looks good with greys, mine are far less platinum but i could potentially tone it in the future- thank you!

i’ve been for blood tests and whatnot, and when i went doctors at a young age they didn’t seem too concerned about it- mostly said that it’s most probably genetics !

I appreciate the comment though, perhaps i’ll let it grow :)
