Lookback: After attending a baby shower

“Decided against having children”

Attended a baby shower, realized I don't want kids due to health concerns and desire for peace and quiet

What I wish I knew
"Not everyone will understand my decision"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider your own desires and needs before having children"
