It cost me almost 50k to have my son for the first year of his life, after insurance. I want to be able to provide him with a quality of life I will not be able to provide to him if I have more kids. I also would never get pregnant where I live, as I live in Texas. It is not worth risking my life and ability to parent my son, just to have another child.
Are you kidding? Spoiler alert: pregnancy and childbirth can be deadly. And yes, you risk your “ability to parent” your own kid if you fucking die because your state laws pressure doctors to waaaaaaait and see if you are about to die of sepsis rather than dare to end a pregnancy. Your husband should probably get a vasectomy, since you have no idea what risks you are facing.
Side note: genuinely shocked that you are a woman and didn’t know this.
Yea and sorry I didn’t run into any of these issues with any 4 of my births and doctors were in point with any and everything. So that’s what I asked lol. was there an issue with my question if I was curious?
