By hormones.

The Devil. Women are made with all the physical attributes to become mothers, but not all women have strong maternal instincts enough to keep having more and more babies because they can't cope without a baby in their life.

[Apc2604]

I have a granddog pixie! I prefer dogs to babies. I am unlikely to be a grandmother. It took 11 years in our relationship to decide on having a baby. My son and wife seem to be following suit!

[pixie374]

Dogs are a perfect substitute :-). I seem to have one more each time a child moves out (and much less painful lol) x

[CrapAtCryptics]

Sheer and utter stupidity - the world is crowded enough already.

[puzzled54]

I think there are too many dogs about, surely they can’t be environmentally friendly!

[Apc2604]

Dogs are more environmentally friendly than humans! They are not responsible for destroying the environment. We are.

Ladies - I did not wish to appear flippant, or 'being a man … ' in my response.

I would suggest that the pain of labour dissipates over time, not the instant the birth is completed!

That's the input I have from the females in my family, which are many.

[pixie374]

The pain does, of course. The memories don't. I would guess if you asked all your ladies, that they could actually talk you through every second... they just don't want to remember it xx

[emmie]

did anyone notice that she is 44, and has a 30 year old, crikey....

[ladybirder]

I've never forgotten the pain and the first thing I thought when I was told I was pregnant for the second time was OMG I've got to go through all that pain again.
Having 22 children is so selfish in an overpopulated world, sterilisation comes to mind. I hope each of the children don't go on to do the same.

[pixie374]

Yes, the 2nd, 3rd, 4th are scarier, because you know by then. Although, they are usually more intense and quicker.

[hereIam]

16:40 totally agree.

Stupid best answer ...

[sanmac]

I absolutely agree with LB at 1740 and others who have posted similar views.

[pixie374]

They certainly have a point, sanmac x although clearly humans aren't quite that simple... and women deciding not to have babies, is physically less likely than men deciding not to have sex. Good luck with your lot and let me know, and I will do my best with the women ;-)

[ladybirder]

piggy what the heck have dogs got to do with it?

[ludwig]

Irresponsible in my opinion. Child benefit should be capped at a reasonable number of children. 6 maximum, which allows for the possibility of sextuplets from a single pregnancy.

[pixie374]

It could be capped for 2 pregnancies, rather than number of children?

[ladybirder]

So what happens if someone has two miscarriages pixie?
Regarding BA, if it is meaning dog mess, then that is the fault of it's owner for not cleaning it up, ie a human being!! If it is because of too many dogs, then people not having their animal neutered is causing that, ie a human being. Or, too many dogs being bred and sold on Facebook or down the pub, guess whose fault that is? Answer, it ain't the dog's fault.

[pixie374]

I knew I had worded that wrongly , lb xx but thought it was probably clear i meant two successful pregnancies. Nobody gets paid for miscarriages anyway xx
