Sex & the Single Woman: My Sister is Pressuring Me to Have a Baby
Is it just me, or is everyone on the planet pregnant? Heck, even that pregnant man is expecting again. The one exception: me, of course.
Time was, it used to be my mother and grandmothers needling me to settle down and have a baby. And while they’re still doing everything short of waving a turkey baster, it’s actually my (pregnant, of course) sister who’s really putting on the pressure. She wants to be an aunt (never mind that her hubby has a nephew, which makes her an aunt), and she wants our kids to grow up together. I want that too, but, well, I’m not anywhere close to even getting married, let alone having a baby. I don’t even have a crush on anybody! Maybe one day I’ll be a single mom, but I’m not ready to do that right now.
Do you feel pressure from friends or family members to have a baby? Share in the comments section.

Luckily I have managed to avoid that hurdle thus far. I have heard of being pressured to have kids from mothers and grandmothers, but never siblings. I’m sure as soon as my sister gets married, I’ll be feeling that pressure too.
A single-minded woman knows when the time is right to start a family (with or without a partner). At your tender age of 31, you have lots of time left to figure it out. When the urge overwhelms you…the time is right.
