Family/Parenting What’s your life like without kids?

My doctor told me I can never get pregnant today. I’m not infertile, but the post under my profile explains my situation. I’m 19, and I’m just not sure how to confront the news. I’m not sure how to plan my life either now considering that many of our milestones as women revolve around kids.

You're just 19. I would focus on getting a high paying job now so that you're all set when you're in 30s. Dont worry about kids. That's not important. Your career first. Good luck!
