I love kids, but I also love giving them back. I am currently childfree by choice. My alarm has barely gone off, tbh. I don't know that I can be unselfish enough to parent and I've spent a very long time building a life for myself that I'm sort of loathe to give it up after I got it to where I wanted. Other concerns: how fibromyalgia will affect my ability to parent, needing a bigger place once the kid is like 8, not having the money to financially support a child, etc. I'm excited for my sister to have babies eventually. I want to be a v. involved aunt.
I decided this on my own and have been in relationships where my partners felt/feel roughly the same as me. None of us are exactly militant about the CF thing, just not our thing.
