I'm totally maternal
I get a pang when I hold a baby and everything.
The difference is the last year or so I've just realised that I don't think one would fit into my life. And then they grow up and become people who you might not like, or they might not like you. It's too immense for me to cope with.
It still makes me a bit sad though, because I think I'd have been a nice mum.

I said this to Wiggy
I'm torn between loving the idea of sitting down with them in the mornings and doing whatever is on Art Attack, or doing everything on my bucket list, which would mean my oven would probably be inhabitable for buns.

I'm fairly against having any
as is my mrs, but just occasionally I note some rewarding aspects of it.

I just don't think they would outweight the disruptions, and I certainly can't see being able to afford them any time soon.

I've never wanted any
but my other half would love to procreate.

I can't ever see myself with a kid. But don't quote me on that.

My missus said she wants one, and asked me if I do
I said "Right now, I cannot ever see myself being a father." Maybe that'll change when I get older, but I just couldn't cope with having a child.

same here
I have a horrible feeling that it might drive me and the mrs apart. I have no basis for that though.

I definitely have a feeling it'll drive me and the lady apart
She did say "Don't worry, I'll get one out of you some day"...

it's tempting

I thought you said she didn't want any too?

( girlinthehole, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 11:12, Reply)

I meant same here to the last line of his post

( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 11:14, Reply)

Me too
But I think I've made a decision. I rather have the buns, and I'll always have time in the future for the list. I'll just have to do it at a slower pace, as I'll be old, but it'll be fine.

Wiggy said that
but I want to do it all now now now whilst I'm still young and exuberant.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 11:37, Reply)

Well
You don't want to have kids when you're not young and exuberant, they're hard work.

I reckon early 30s is the latest I'd want to be a mum, so I need to start now.

I'm dead against having children, EVAR.

ha, I was like that 2 years ago :)
I'm totally converted now though. I still maintain that other people's children are loathesome, but mine is (to me) lovely. even when he's projecile vomiting across his cot because I dared to leave the room. That was fun. But the shoes are so so so cute and teeny tiny, and he's got gorgeous blond curls and big brown eyes and two teeny teeth which appear in his enormous grin, and he's started saying 'mama', which is a million kinds of cute. *melts*

that was one of the first things that made me think "hmmm...maybe one day"
I saw a tiny pair of DCs in Schuh.
( Kitty v1.0 desperately naive, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 11:37, Reply)

Me too but I just have never got the urge to procreate.
You've plenty of time yet anyway : )
( girlinthehole, Wed 21 Jul 2010, 11:06, Reply)

I'll probably decide I want one when it's too late.
