Nervous about becoming a parent...should I or shouldn't I?

I am a married 30F. My husband and I are considering trying to get pregnant soon (as in starting in a few weeks). I am definitely the one to push this, but my husband agreed to start trying (although I think he would rather wait longer). We agree that in terms of age it's time to just rip the bandaid and do it. My issue is, I am unsure if I really want kids or if I am just doing it because that's what people are "supposed" to do. When I think about it, I like the idea of having a family and so feel a strong desire to have kids. However, I am also terrified of how this will impact my relationship with my husband and my overall happiness. I have cruised subreddits like childfree and they scared the hell out of me. With a simple google search and I was able to find hundreds of threads about parents regretting their choice to have kids, which also scares me. But...I still want kids.My questions are- is having kids as bad as the Internet makes it seem? Does anyone have regrets? Are you less happy? Did it affect your marriage and in what ways?Thanks parents! via /r/Parenting http://ift.tt/2myTowc
