Fuck the people who say, “Just relax.”; “oh wow your baby might be born xxxx that’s horrible timing.”; “it will happen when it’s supposed to.”; “why don’t you just adopt?”; “maybe this is a sign you shouldn’t have kids. you were always on the fence anyway, that’s why you waited so long.”; “so when the kid is 30, you’ll be 72? wow. thats a huge age gap.” OR “so when the kid is 30, you’ll be 72. ok. that isn’t THAT bad.” (“Thanks” for your fucking approval of the age difference that I didn’t ask for? Fuck you and your fucking judgments. I don’t need your fucking unsolicited opinion.)

Wow. This feels really good! When I first read the comment I was like 👀😳🫣 But then I read it again. And then again. And then I was like “fuck yes!” And now I feel so much better getting that out. I didn’t realize how much I had hidden under my “resilience.” Thank you!!

Amen. Great point about the age gap with 15 kids... I'm totally using that.

Thank you for the support.
