Hi there

Well, as I have completely failed to keep tabs on my other 2 blogs i have decided to go for something a little more free-form.

So this is me. I am a 40 something married professional woman and that is where my conventionality ends.

I am starting to think i am weird. When every other woman at work is cooing over puppy stores or wedding photos or scans, why am I the only one left thinking "very nice, now can we get on with something". Baby stuff just doesn't ring my bell. i have never wanted kids and will never have them (despite all the people saying "you will change your mind when yr married"). I don't hate kids I just don't feel the desire or need for them. I like to see pregnant friends having healthy happy offspring but I just don't get the broody feeling. No I don't want to hold it thank you.

But why is my feeling and thoughts always dismissed? I sometimes feel like they are pittying me or something. Maybe I am disfunctional in some way? "Oh dear, can't you have them?". "Yes I can i just chose not to."

So why am I labelled selfish and nasty? Isn't it more selfish to have a kid because it is "expected" and not just because you want one?

I dunno. Think i am doomed to be the wicked one in the corner.
