Affirmation of The Day ✨
Let’s Get Into It…
I have seven nieces and nephews plus one more niece on the way. I love them with all of my heart, but my favorite part is that I can return to sender whenever I want! I did an Instgram Live the other day with Halima Mason, Sex Therapist and Founder of Holistically, and we talked about how even at our age right now (I’m 27) if we would get pregnant it would honestly feel like a teen pregancy.
Don’t get me wrong, I love kids but I do question if having children is the right choice for me. According to the University of Michigan, 51% of Latinas get pregnant at least once before the age of 20. I don’t know about ya’ll but I was so SCARED to have sex in high school because my parents ingrained in my sisters and I that we better not ever come home with our “domingo siete".
In a Latinx household, attitudes around having kids and having a partner changes as you get older. “Y el novio?”, “When are you going to have kids?”, “Cuando me vas dar un nieto?”. Thankfully my parents never pressured me about any of these things. Even to this day my mom does not question my choice of not having kids right now. But I understand that it’s not like that for everyone.
I still haven’t fully decided if I want to have kids in the future. Yes, I would love a mini me! But I also know that I struggle with depression and anxiety. I know that it’s a possibility that I’ll get postpartum depression. I know my body is going to drastically change. I ask myself “is it worth it?”. I don’t want to revolve my life around my children. I don’t want to sacrifice myself or my mental health. Growing up in a strict immigrant household I was always limited on what I could do and who I can be. And it feels like at the age of 27 I’m barely starting to come into who I want to be.
My point being is that if you don’t want to have kids, that is OKAY. It’s not selfish. If you DO want to have kids, then AMAZING. Do what’s going to make you happy because it’s your life and no one else’s.
Con Amor,
Lorena

Every hottie needs the Hollywood Hottie by CalExotics! I’m not going to lie, I had bit trouble using this one because it was kind of confusing (for me) what goes where. But hey that’s what pleasure is all about! Trial and error. The Hollywood Hottie was a good time. However, it’s not in my top 5. I’m excited to try more from this brand because it is a woman owned!
