    Motherhood is really a lot and you are right when you say people don't share enough honestly I was SHOCKED after my 1st son that's one of the reason I started blogging which recently evolved to my RUclips because after searching I realized that we blacks don't share a lot I guess it has to do with our culture...

      It’s ghetto and trash. If I were rich and in a developed country I wouldn’t bother with it. Sometimes I regret and hate that humans have to procreate because we want someone to care for us when we grow old.

      I fostered many newborn babies, and yes, it is a million times easier to be your best self and provide amazing care when your body hasn’t gone through trauma. I have two biological kids, one natural birth and one via c-section. The physical and hormonal discomfort doesn’t end at childbirth.

    For contraception I use a copper coil which has no added hormones. My period is heavier and my iron levels got dangerously low but I figure that is better than an unwanted pregnancy as I would not abort the child for moral reasons. You're right the weight of contraceptive responsibility/avoiding pregnancy should not rest on women alone!
    Thank you for sharing your perspective and experience. My sister is pregnant so I'm reminding myself why I have chosen to remain child free. Thank you to all the parents who have children - the future of humanity. It's an important role.
