So I think that you need to focus on completing the degree and getting a good job, all the while staying on your birth control. You are twenty nine and still have some time. Put the idea on the back burner.

Actually, I passed all of my child development classes with flying colors and each one of them said that, for the most part, the second child has a sort of complex and feels pretty much the way I do if parents don't handle it properly. It is a personal view that I hold that the second is less special than the first because of personal experience that I have tried for years to work through, not one of child psychologists or professors.
I also don't want to have my child until I am at least 33 and have my career set where I want it to be. Hopefully, I can move past this issue and have a kid with my bf. If I can't, then maybe I can find someone else more suited, if not, there is always invitro.
