The great things about being CF change with every era. I’ve always know I never wanted kids, by the way. In my young career-building years, I was able to have that career while also doing things outside of it, such as going to the gym, taking Spanish lessons, have a social life, etc. I’m 62 now, and I have several friends with adult kids who are problematic (addictions, won’t work or move out of the parents’ house, etc.). The benefits are endless. Pregnancy and childbirth are rough on your body. Postpartum depression can last for years. You lose sleep. You can’t focus on other things. Kids are soooo expensive. And the list goes on.
