Just reading about the pain, contractions, episiotomy, emergency c-sections, recovery, blood tests, nausea during pregnancy, makes me to not ever want a child, ever. I do not like any pain at all, and giving birth is one of the most painful things one can endure. I also prefer to be free and have my space and freedom without having the responsibility of a child.
