    Is OAD becoming more common in part because parenting is harder now?

    @mikecrb I don't think parenting is harder now. I just thing the newer generation of parents care more about not traumatizing our kids and work on putting in the required effort. It's always been hard. They just didn't care enough. But yes that's why I'm OAD lol

    @writergirlrs I don't understand the appeal of more than one kid! This shit is so hard lol. Being responsible for one human life is more than enough for me, thanks. My kiddo keeps saying her friend from daycare is her sister. That's fine by me, she knows mommy and daddy can't and won't have...

    OAD by choice - when did you/your S.O. get a vasectomy?

    @jenny777 I was going to get my tubes removed right after having her, but my mom talked me out of it. I waited until kiddo was like a year and a half before I got the procedure done

    Do twins count as one and done?

    @nathandavis I'm for sure stearing clear of fresh babies though lol. I was adopted as an older kid and it really changed the course of my life, I'd like to foster older kiddos in hopes of reunification. But right now my kid is 2.5 and she is a lot for me to handle by myself, so this won't be for...

    Do twins count as one and done?

    @nathandavis To me I consider 'one and done' as pregnancy. I'm not opposed to fostering/adopting when my kiddo is a bit older

    My kids (5, 7) just left for a 6-day vacation with my husband, why can't I stop crying

    @leadbyexample12 It's really hard being away from your kiddos. I just dropped mine off at her grandma's for 5 days, and I feel strange. Idk why, she loves her grandma, grandma loves her, they'll have a blast! But part of me is wondering if it makes me a bad mom for having no reason to bring her...

    Are you OAD because you're scared of childbirth? C-sec to VBAC

    @stewy0042 Not my main reason (I never wanted kids) but my after birthing experience really cemented that I never wanted to do it again. I couldn't sit for weeks! Turns out I had a hematoma the size of a coke can 😭
