The Fear of Pregnancy and Guilt of Not Wanting Biological Kids

Sometimes I feel guilty about not wanting to have biological kids. But pregnancy sounds so scary to deal with. Things could happen to me of I get pregnant, things could happen to the fetus, the child, the possibilty of so many things run through my head. Having PCOS I know I have a worse chance of having kids and keeping a pregnancy so that in and of itself is terrifying. I just wish I was like normal people and want to experience pregnancy. But it just sounds so nerve wrecking. Like yeah it would be nice to have a child that's my own flesh and blood but..it just all sounds so scary to me.

Me and my wife adopted a brother and sister, because my wife had polyps, but 3 weeks after the adoption was finalized we found out we were pregnant. Either way the connection to my children is the same. There are many options, so don't over think it.

I completely understand this only I don’t have PCOS but another medical condition. I’m still navigating my feelings about it all but my reasons for wanting biological children is because I was adopted. So mentally I want my own blood connection to someone but I also have all the fears and millions of thoughts about it that is terrifying. I’m sure when the time comes, you will have a plan and know what you want, etc ❤️ glad to know I’m not alone in this way of thinking

I think surrogate pregnancies are a thing! I don't know the details but it's something you might want to poke at. Again, don't know the details, so I could very well be wrong or not know how that wouldn't work, but I hope it helps ^^
