The isnt here isnt that shes encourage women to have children, its that shes encouraging women to put their lives and careers on hold

Mom had me in 40's and could afford a babysitter by then and kept working up in her career while I was growing up. Wasn't easy but she still came to sporting events, grads, etc. for both her children

Childfree is the only thing that makes sense in this economy and climate.

this is why they're making nursing harder to get student loans for, they want women to stay home and pump out kids

I mean anything above the age of 35 is classified clinically as a geriatric pregnancy, so it does make a certain amount of sense, no?

She also arguably made more in her last 5 yrs than in her first 30, which is why a career is so important and needs to come first imo.

My mom had me at 38, she had a career before she had me and that’s why she was able to give me the life I have. Career first, always

Fr!! My mom had me after being able to support having a child. The only reason she’s able to pay both for college and law school is bc she had a career before she had me.

No one’s saying to put having kids off until past 35 if you want kids

At age 20, the average woman has a 25% chance of getting pregnant each month and at 30 it’s 20%. It’s not like it becomes impossible whatsoever. And most studies will show you that it’s a slow decline until 35 then drastic after 35. But 30-35 is a completely fine time to go for

No I’m on your side. 20% is still a big number each month. It’s not that significant and they should all have an easy enough time getting pregnant within the year if that’s what they want

And actually going back, if you’re trying for a year you’re still more likely than not to get pregnant until past 40

I figured as much, but I’m always just so curious about people who get so angry over a conversation on an app with a random stranger

When did I ever say any of that? I think you’re projecting a lot onto me that I never said or even believe tbh
