10. Because I'm likely to leave my child diaperless in order to buy a cute new shirt.
9. Because I can't look at injuries. If my child fell and cut his/her leg. I would have to call for backup to tend to my child.
8. Because I have no closet space for anyone else's clothes, but mine.
7. Because on a regular basis, I lock myself out of my house and car, I lose keys, sunglasses, phones, etc., and I often forget appointments and obligations. In other words, I'm voted Most Likely to leave my child at the grocery store.
6. Because I CANNOT/WILL NOT take my own dogs to the vet to get shots. I make my husband or I pay my brother- in -law to take them because I am afraid I will hear them cry. Long story short......I wouldn't be able to vaccinate my children.
5. Because my mother-in-law is awfully fond of her 2 seater Mercedes convertible and I refuse to be the one responsible when she trades it in for a mini-van!
4. Vomit makes me vomit! Have you seen Vince Vaughn in 4 Christmas's? That's how it is.
3. Because I am obsessed with my dogs. I always worry and wonder if they are cold, hungry, lonely, etc. For example, they need 2 dog beds per dog because one might not be thick enough to be comfortable. And I wasnt able to stop with just my dogs.....Now I will drive across states to pick up OTHER dogs and try to save them as well. I assume that once I had my own child, I would try to do the same with children until I was either broke or exhausted.
2. Because I like Amber's kids and if mine didn't turn out like her's, I'd be disappointed and not want them anymore....JUST KIDDING!!!!
1. All jokes aside....the honest reason is..............I'm terrified of hospitals, doctors, needles, blood, and pain. I have not had a shot or my blood taken in 15 years and plan to live as long as possible without this happening. By getting pregnant, I would voluntarily put myself in those very situations that I have spent my life trying to avoid. My grandpa and mom are enablers of my problem. When I was sick, my grandpa called every doctor in town and asked them if they would see me without taking my blood....he did this until he found one! I should have my gall bladder removed, but I choose to live with gall bladder attacks versus....the dreaded hospital. I should get braces again so my teeth will be straight again...but....they would want to remove my wisdom teeth first. Nope...that means surgery...I'm out. So, as much as I would love to have a child one day.....my fears are much greater. Maybe one day, my desire to have a child will be larger than my fear......then it might be possible......not likely, but possible.

Ok Kate I’m going to walk you thru this one. Motherhood is greater then any fear! It is the most amazing feeling in the world. Trust me everything that happens with pregnancy you seem to just forget about once you hold your child in your arms. You’re such a good person I know you WILL be a great mother!
