Deciding to bring children into the world can be a heavy, hard, and monumental decision. The world constantly throws all the big and scary reasons at you as to why you shouldn’t. We live in a time of uncertainty, whether it is economical, political, or even public health related. Some people never even think about the unrest in the world when having children, and some let it control and postpone their baby-having desires. You have to do what is best for you. Creating life and bringing a baby into this world isn’t a thing to be taken lightly (in my humble opinion), and it’s okay to take your time making that decision. Maybe the way you grew up has a role in whether you have a baby right now. Maybe you are worried about what will happen to your job, school, and your role as wife, friend, and sister. Maybe you don’t really have a reason other than you’re just scared. That’s okay. Every one of those thoughts is normal and okay. You aren’t alone. If you’ve had any of these thoughts, I want to share some truth with you:
