    Oh no, no need to apologise it was a pretty weak joke… But solidarity, I’ve had that too.

    And getting asked “is everything ok?” as if we can’t have kids, rather than chose not to.

    And the emotional blackmail about no grandchildren.

    I think it really unnerves some folk.

      I stopped talking to my mother (with rare exception) due to that very emotional blackmail. Knew I didn’t want kids but started hounding me about “grandbabies” when I was all of 17.
