Starmer Continues With "Grossly...
News1 min ago
Ok a while back I posted a question about if it was normal not to have a maternal urges, I really thought I didnt want to have children.
Now Im not sure. Im due to start university in September and will be 32 when Im finished, then I would have to work for a year. Now Im worried Im putting off having a family, I have all of a sudden started thinking about having a child! I have never, ever felt like this.
I have been on prozac for last couple of years and have recently managed to come off it (4 weeks ago). Am I going a bit mad? I dont want to speak to my partner about it because I know he would love to have a baby and I dont want to get his hopes up then change my mind in a months time!
Nothing else in my life has changed so I dont understand these sudden urges to have a child!!

It is possible to go through periods in life when you do or do not feel maternal or broody.
I would suggest that you see how you feel in say 4 months time. if you are still considering it then maybe suggest to your partner that you try in a years time or something. itll give you a chance to decide if its really right for you.
I fell pregnant with my partner after only 3 months of seeing each other. It was a shock to both and throughout my pregnancy it didnt really sink in that I was gonna be a mum even though ive always been a maternal person. Our son is now 9 months old and we have never been happier.
I wish you all the best with whatever you decide to do.
