If you have children and feel this way about your own, then I suggest you get professional help. You might be experiencing depression. It is nothing to be ashamed of, it happens to a lot of people. Having children is a blessing and one of the best gifts in life. You should not let your depression rob you of this joy.

Never, I’m so full of love for my LO. It’s hard taking care of her, but every time I see her smile it’s all worth it. I’m actually more sad whenever I have to leave her to go to the office. I even get jealous when someone takes her away from me (borrowing her because relatives want to play with her).

I regret being pregnant. As I need to stop working, need to give financial support to my family. Eventhough I'm past 30 already, emotionally and financially not yet ready to be a mom. Add to that the father of my twins didn't acknowledged them. If I should have been more responsible on being protected

I ever had abortion twice before. i won't say regret. I would just hope i could turn back time and tell myself, if i feel that my current husband is not capable of handling kids or marriage, i could just be alone raising the kid without going thru so much stress and unhappiness

No, never regret having kids. Though all my pregnancies (baby #3 is on the way!) are unplanned, my husband and I sees it as a blessing. We firmly believe that our children are given to us because God sees we deserve to have them. It's a blessing & a treasure that's super rare.

Ask me this question 5 years ago and my answer will be " I dont want biological children. There are many abandoned kids. why should i deliver one?" Ask me today and i'm preparing a beautiful name for our second child. Life change, kid changes your life :)

I used to say the same thing 10 years ago...now after having own son....trying for another....can not think of adoption.

never regret and will never feel that way. we tried for 7 years to finally have my no1 and 2 years later no2. though it's very tiring taking care of them (I'm a sahm with no help), but it's really wonderful to have them. the joy and fun which I can't get from anywhere.

No not at all.... When I told my husband about my pregnancy he was in tears.... And then he became so possessive in taking care of me more like a Child... Today m blessed with a Baby boy and yes it's a blessing for both of us because finally will have a family..

God bless your Beautiful Family ❤

You don’t have to feel sorry for wanting and knowing when to have a child at the right time. Having the support that I have now with my husband, i wouldnt have changed things any other way. I have gone through abortion from an abusive relationship years ago.

I didn't regret having my #1 despite unplanned and unmarried but yet I regret didnt take permanent precautions and got pregnant with #2 after few years of marriage. From that experience, we really confirmed we only wanted one child...
