When people project their own needs upon others it is ANNOYING. It happened to me for a long time - I was NEVER... EVER going to have kids. Did not want them. I was actually afraid of what my DNA mixed with someone else's could produce... Anyway - I will be 52 tomorrow and my kids are 8 and 9. The DNA mix is just fine. :)
I changed my mind.
But I hated people telling me that I absolutely WOULD CHANGE MY MIND.
I made a decision based on several personal things but believe me, it was close. I have not for one moment regretted having my 2 children. You may or may not change your mind. It is a personal choice and it totally changes EVERYTHING. (Which is primarily why I did decide to have children - I thought the change would be positive... And it was) :)
Just for the record - I felt the same way about going through a pregnancy. It was a good experience though - It also sucked in some ways but the end result was worth the discomfort of the final 4 weeks.
It's just personal - you are still quite young and have lots of time to decide. :)
