"Hurray I'm registered!"(use this thread to introduce yourself)

Ehhhhhh. Diaper blowouts.

They would always happen to me right after I bathed the kid and got them all wrapped up nicey nice in a new blanket, with a new hat on - then BOOM.

And I would have to walk away for a minute, muttering, "Oh you fucking son of a bitch". I think the other nurses were scared of me.

Must have been bad, but it's hilarious in the retelling larious

Hopefully, Thom will pop in here soon. He's in healthcare but more from the rescue/EMS end. He's told some war stories as well.

For Law1204 ~

Oh, by the way - HAVE YOU HEARD?!?!???!?11111???2221111???


Thom, I worked in the ICU, also. I started out in the CTICU, got scared of the old people - went to NICU, then I was a pediatric critical care float, then I went to OB.

Yeah. How about that?

I think I just pissed myself. You just describe me as a nurse, lol.

I look forward to your stories.

If YOU are the "exception" to what I am saying, then why does my commentary bother you so much?
I don't hate your kids, I HATE YOU!

Hi! :newb
I'm 28, just got married this past January to my awesome hubby. I have always known I didn't want kids. I was lucky enough to find a guy who doesn't want kids either, who is also smart, sweet, and cracks me right the heck up on a regular basis.

I have an appt one week from Monday to talk to my doc about sterilization. I am hoping against hope that he doesn't give me too much crap. I have a few chronic health issues that he has been treating me for so I hope that sways him to my side. I plan to push the "I can't take my meds while preggo and can NOT be off them" as well as "I don't want to pass along any of my issues to a child" strings.

We have 2 cats, 2 rats, and a roommate. Yes, the roommate pretty much counts as a pet!

Instead of having parasites, we read LOTS, play Eurogames and RPGs, paint miniatures, and read comics. I spend my child-free free time going to college and doing the resulting homework.
I am working on a degree in American Sign Language Interpretation, and should be done in about 4ish years...I hope.

So..um..yeah..hi!
also, I am in Kansas..yeah...

Just saying Hi, been lurking for awhile now so I might as well start posting. Besides that I don;t have kids, never wanted them at all, never will. Besides that I decided to not contribute to the ongoing enviromental downfall of the planet, as a result of excessive breeding, and all of the costs that go with it. Other then that I diob;t have anything else to say.

Hi, mpanthera :1welcome

Just wanted to say "Hi!" introduce myself. I've been lurking for several months now and decided to join. Hubby and I are CF and have been together for over 10 years. I've never wanted kids and have heard all the standard phrases ("Oh you'll change your mind some day"). If I had a penny for every time I heard that over the years I'd be filthy stinkin' rich by now.

Been lurking a whle-I realized I wanted to be cf when I was a teen. There was a medical issue where I might not be able to have kids and although I found out eventually I could, first I realized I didn't want them anyways! lol I had just never thought about it before honestly. I have a lovely dog and two cats and they trump any drooling crapfactory anyday.Looking foward to meeting you all!

:1welcome

Thanks for the welcome! So nice to find some likeminded individuals. My best friend is the only other one I know in real life that doesn't want to deal with brats either. Baybee fever is rampant even in the early 20's group unfortunately. Its a true face meet palm moment when someone too young to even think of supporting a child decides they MUST pop out offspring immediately, but as ridiculous as it sounds, girls really do deliberately have children as young as early teens these days, so even while i was still in hs the hysteria had begun. That's why this site is awesome! lol

I didnt' see this thread when I registered. I started my own welcome... so... I'll write here too in the official welcome thread.

I am CF, mid 50's, married 35 years to the same wonderful brat intollerent guy. I live in Maryland and am a Poodlemom. I have had poodles for 37 years. I currenly only have one...a little cream colored female named Amber.

I am basically retired.. but work in a as a volunteer in a charitable org. which keeps me pretty busy in the fall.

I am happy to find this forum to vent about brats and their handlers. I have been on other CF boards but this one seems like the best place to go if I have run ins with brats and bingo breeders. I am sure I will have lots to post about. I have enjoyed the reading.

"brats and their handlers."
That is awsome. welcome!

Hey.

I've been lurking for a while (from here and work so you'll get 2 IP's on me, just in case). I figured I'd finally make myself legit. I've enjoyed the heck out of everything I've read even if some of it makes me want to make me put my head through the wall.

In the mean time, proud CFBC married woman. Husband has no desire what so ever to spawn thank goodness. We put up with our friend's kids but the rest of them can jump in a lake.

So yeah, thanks for letting me lurk!

:newb Hi guys!

Some of you may know me from TheChildfreeLife website. I like this board a lot too so I thought I'd join this one also. Because I'm on two childfree boards now, do I qualify as hardcore? :-)

I'm on the younger side - recently turned 24 - and am currently a graduate student. Always sort of knew I'd be childfree. Did a lot of babysitting in high school and made the formal decision to be CF when I was 20. Haven't looked back, and I love it!
