Yet another one of my friends has just announced her pregnancy -- although by friends in this case I mean "person I know on facebook who I used to like in person but now can't stand because of the idiotic ignorant political bullshit she reblogs". But I digress.

I WANT A BAAAAAAABBBBYYYYY. NOOOOOOW.

Intellectually I know I have no business having a baby; I'm still financially reliant on my parents (not that they aren't hinting for a grandchild), live in their home, and would prefer having a marriage first. But I really want a baby more than a husband. Like, I'm a virgin in my 20s mostly because I don't want to put the effort into dating. Abstractly I know I'd do better with a supportive partner by my side while raising a family. And, to be completely honest, I have some fears that a medical condition of mine might at the very least cause problems during pregnancy.

So no I'm not gonna go out and get pregnant but GODDAM SHUT UP BIOLOGICAL CLOCK STOP MAKING ME CRY AT FACEBOOK FRIENDS' baby pictures.

I know this feeling, so hard.

Reading stuff like thing honestly makes me think nature fucked up with me. I think I came without a biological clock.

You are not alone. I can see a baby and think cute. I can even play with the baby. And I will be an awesome aunt for my sister's kids when she has them. But I have no urge whatsoever to have my own. At all. And I'm pretty convinced that is never going to change, in spite of my parents insisting that it will. I'm 35.

This is me, as well.

I find it strange OP is saying they're getting like this in their 20s. Isn't it usually 30s/40s that it gets bad, for those so afflicted? OP! You have YEARS ahead of you yet. Don't rush it!

Nah you're fine. Or at least if you're not, then I'm not either. There are few things in the world I want less than a baby.

No way, I think it's normal and natural for some women to not want kids.

Me too.

Coming up on 31 years old and I have no inclination whatsoever to have a child of my own! So you're not alone.

I'm not necessarily against being an aunt, though, which might happen at some point in the next couple of years.

Same here.

I wanted kids, but due to health reasons (mental and physical), that's just not a good idea. I've heard over and over about someone's biological clock ticking, and although I wanted kids in the abstract, I've lucked out so far at it not being an imperative.

I'm 37. :)

I don't want a baby necessarily.

But I do want a family.

I'm so lonely.

Be your own best friend first. Find a group that participates in a sport or a hobby that interests you. Talk to people in the group. Make friends. Do stuff with your friends. Just don't rush into having a kid/family to cure your own loneliness or boredom, because that's the cruelest thing you can do to the child and/or spouse involved. My .02 worth.

Oh man I get the baby blues so bad at times, though I know I'm not at all ready for a baby. Notbthat I have anyone to make one with at the moment either.

I'm lucky that I have two baby sisters that are 1 and 4 years old (I'm currently 22) that I can borrow though. Also whenever I'm alone with them in public most people assume they are mine, which weirds me out a bit, which is just another sign that I'm a bit too young still.

Urgh. Yes anon. I went to a baby shower recently which meant going into a baby store and my ovaries went haywire. All the babies. All the children!

Had to keep reminding them WE HAVE NO MONEY AND DO NOT LIKE EXTENDED CHILD PRESENCE.

But ovary is still crying at me. It's ok, the baby is born in the next week or so. I'll just babysit and squash my ovaries delusions.

you can just unfollow them

I did, but I got a notification for her birthday, which is how I found out.

Could you get a job at a daycare, or be a nanny/babysitter? Or would that make URGE TO HAVE BABY even worse?

DA

Getting really attached to other people's kids has forced me to realize I should definitely have my own.

Oh my god, this is almost exactly how I feel. I've always known I want kids and even though I know I'm not in a place to have a baby right now, my biological clock is ticking at a deafening volume.

I usually find that prolonged contact with a baby makes me more than happy to not have one, what with the screaming and attempts to kill themselves through sheer stupidity and the constant emitting of various substances from all of their orifices

They also smile, laugh, spend their time being scientists testing out the world they're in, make you realize how amazing everything is when you realize they're seeing it for the first time. They're an up-close study of a person Becoming, born with a personality and watching it blossom and seeing what a fascinating new creature you will have. They're the ultimate example of possibility.

BABIESBABIESBABIESBABIES.

When did this start being a thing for you, anon? I'm asking out of genuine curiosity. I hear so many women talk about their bio clocks, but I feel like I'm well into the age when mine should activate and still... nothing.

Mine activated around age 38. And I don't think I'll have kids, but wow the last two years have made me want one. That whole soft/sweet baby thing makes me get all squishy inside and my body is like "YOU NEED ONE OF THOSE NOW!"

I think I was about 24? Before that in my teens I had this terror of teenage pregnancy because my neighbor growing up got pregnant at 14 (which holy shit is so young looking at it from this side of 20). Then around 21 I started seeing babies on the bus and going like, "I could go for one of those". And now several years later I'm starting to edge into, "I WANT TO STEAL THAT BABY" when I see one.

Awwww good luck anon <3

I have a baby atm actually. Despite medical condition (I waited til my late thirties). I actually prefer older children to babies though tbh, but my baby is pretty cute (cos he's my baby) but I secretly don't care about other people's babies!
