What helped you make the decision to be child-free? How do I be sure about what I want? Looking for recommendation - resources, articles, books etc.

My partner just let me know he would be ready to start trying in a year. My head just spun. I am not ready now at 31 (as a woman and my clock is going tick-tock) and I don’t think I will ever be ready. I am neither excited about the process of birthing nor does a crying pooping tantrum-throwing machine excite me!

    I’ve known for as long as I’ve known that people have children. I’ve been open to the idea and possible discussion and doing my best if it ever happened to me. But there was no decision to be made in my mind.

    Luckily I’m now pretty much past the danger for any foreseeable future.
