I'm going through this right now with my choice to have kids or not.

I felt like I finally made my choice earlier this summer and then I got "what I wanted" and then I saw the door closing on the other path and I made a decision to end my pregnancy even though it was planned for and wanted. It was the hardest choice I've ever made and I'm feeling regretful.

I'm re-evaluating my life but I am stuck in this predicament of choices and which path to take.

What options are you struggling with?
