Hitting the Snooze Button on My Biological Clock

I've gotta admit, this recent study about women losing all but 12% of their eggs by age 30 concerns me. 'Cause the 30? It is approaching. Rapidly. And 12% doesn't really seem like much. (Well, until you think about it, and then 12% of 300,000 eggs is still an okay amount). But seriously? I'm not ready to be 30. And while I like the idea of kids "some day", I'm not really ready for that some day to be right now. I really think I need to be 25 again so that I'd have 5 more years to get used to the idea.

Stupid biological clock.

30 is fantastic! I am loving my 30s so much more than I did my 20s. Own it. And don't worry about those eggs. :)
At least you don't people constantly asking you if you're done. I always reply with, "can you count? there are 3 here." That usualy shuts them up. Especially when they realize how large the boys are.
After the initial scare, I've decided that 36,000 eggs is plenty, and am therefore no longer worried. If 36,000 can't produce a kid, it just wasn't meant to be.
