Maybe I should not have had a kid?

Hi Gladys. While I am sure my wife will have her own specific answer on this, I will try to give a dads perspective on this question. I definitely have not regretted having a child at any point in time yet. And I hope this will never change. My feelings towards our newborn have increased continuously since he was born. And I mean that literally, because during pregnancy, I did not have that much attachment to the baby (yet). However, I would say I regret putting a lot onto my wife's shoulders. Being pregnant, going into labour, and also breastfeeding round-the-clock is an extremely heavy burden, for which I will always admire and respect her for. Once we had our son, she sometimes felt overwhelmed with all that is expected from her. I am sure, I could always have done more to relief her from these expectations. So, I mainly regret not investing more time helping my wife, but I would never regret having the baby.
