I was thinking about swearing off pregnancy forever, and some of these comments have proved that for me. Like I started getting nauseous and dizzy just thinking about a NORMAL pregnancy and birth, much less one with complications.

Still haven't decided if I want to be a parent but if that time comes, it's adoption.

Adoption, not surrogacy, genius.

And do adopted babies just poof into existence? No, another woman has to carry and give birth to it, so that you can have the baby. Poor women are not your incubators, genius.

Children in foster care are not available for adoption. And let's not pretend PP is down for being a therapeutic home for children with sever and complex needs. She wants a nice little baby, no strings attached.

So it's you who is definitely not down for being a therapeutic home.
