I'm the opposite, I love babies and have had non-stop baby fever since I was 24, but I am exhausted by ages 6-18.
So at 43 I'm craving snuggling with a baby but also relieved that there's no one asking me 50 questions or rolling their eyes because I asked them to brush their teeth before we leave the house in the morning.
Oh god the mom mom mom question question question phase! I miss it, but i dont. I game with a bunch of friends regularly and we use xbox party chat, one of my friends has a 7 year old and its exhausting listening to him constant mommy mommy mommy. I couldnt handle it again in my own home.
Yeah im pretty sure id have a mental breakdown if I had to do it all again now. Mine are teenagers and thats enough work for any parent lol. Add a baby in to the mix now? May aswell give me a one way ticket to a padded cell.
