I have one already
But, I'm good with just one. I'm sure my husband would love a second, but I am good with one
I will say that I'm not a "kid person" in general. Babies are cute, but I have no desire to hold other kids and I'm not very comfortable around other people's kids in general. I adore my own child, but my maternal instincts end there.
This is me!
I never wanted kids, I had been saying that since I was 5 or 6. I never played with dolls etc.
But wait, those of you who know me say, you have a kid, isn't he like 13?
Yes and yes! It was a 'surprise'. I lucked out he is great. Oh there are moments of not so great, he IS just entering those teen years. But over all I am pretty proud of the person he is becoming and genuinely like him. I mean of course I love him, he is my child, but discovering I like the person he is becoming is wonderful.
I was terrified when I found out I was pregnant, as having kids had never been part of my life plan, but in the end it worked out quite well.
The average age of first time mom's at my OB's office is 37. If you really wanted it, it's not too late. It is unheard of around DC to have a child before 31-32 (I'm a freak of nature at 28), and extremely common to have them in your 40's. The fertility decline at 35 is pretty overexaggerated and minimal, and the risk of birth defects is still only around 1%.
That being said, if you don't want it, don't do it
My parents had me in their mid 20's and then had my brother 10.5 years later. There ARE some harder things about being an older parent. Yes you are typically more stable financially, however my dad (who is in great shape for his age) commented how often he got mistaken for a grandparent. And going out to play sports etc with his son was so much more difficult physically then playing with is daughter.
