Is it normal to not want to give birth to my own children

77% Normal
9 Comments

Ever since I was a little girl, i have absolutely been terrified of the prospect of childbirth and from that have grown up saying to people I never want kids. But now i'm slightly older, even though I am still absolutely terrified of childbirth so much so that I don't want to have kids of my own, I am thinking about maybe adoption in the future. When I tell people this they think im mad that I don't want to give birth to my own children and cannot comprehend why i would want to adopt when im perfectly 'physically' capable of giving birth to my own.

    If this is a phobia you'd like to get over, I'd suggest talking to a therapist about it. If you're looking for alternatives to adoption, you can hire a surrogate.

    it seems you need a big dick and some fisting
    to make the hole more capable for a new born child.

    work hard and good luck.

    When I have this fear, I just think: it's just pain compared to 18 years from a loving child that is my own, just think that it is ten minutes pain tops. (Might be underexaggarating there) plus you won't know if you really want to adopt or go through childbirth unless you get pregnant

    I think you basically have a fear for the pain (which you forget after) so you would be better off as the dad lol

    Same with me. I'm never giving birth, period. Adoption is the best way to go if you have this phobia

    I've been saying the the same thing to my friends for years, often with similar reactions.
