It would be interesting to compare the percentage of men and women at a specific age who regret having children to the percentage who regret not having children (broken down by choice vs circumstance), along with the explanations that they give. We need the full picture.
What if they change their minds later? Women in their 30s sometimes get what is called “baby rabies,” which is a thirst to get pregnant so strong that it feels like always having to pee, or always being hungry. It is a truly desperate situation.https://twitter.com/anya_peach/status/1156432214965542912 …

Yup! I bawled my eyes out once a month for 3 years. That's what you get for "waiting till you're good and ready". Happily I had 2 healthy babies but boy, I wish I'd started sooner.

Well there’s always an option to adopt, and freeze your eggs. Science have come this far. We’re a lot more educated in terms of what having a baby actually involves. Everyone understands financial, mental and time burden it comes with. Don’t know how women without their careers.

Adoption and fertility treatments are mega expensive.

I get that it’s not for everyone but I don’t think everyone should have a child before they turn 30. Sue me
