Mothers Have Their Own Platform, Why Can't We?

Don't get it twisted...this is NOT an attack on the ever-so-popular "mompreneur" and other mommy platforms on social media. But, in a world that preaches inclusivity, why do most people frown upon those who choose NOT to have children? If mothers can post about their day-to-day activities, so can we!

We have the right to showcase our lifestyle without it being misconstrued as bragging, irresponsible, or annoying. (Although some childfree platforms explicitly brag about being childfree, that's not what Unfertilized Eggs is about.)

We should'nt have to remain silent or hide how happy we are that we chose a life that best fits us, instead of falling victim to societal "norms." You have the right to be the rich auntie, fly stepmom, loving dog mom, or caring plant mom. (Did we miss anything??)

Childfree women are some of the bravest and free-spirited people around - and that should be celebrated. 

With that said, on this last day of Women's History Month, we encourage you to continue to boldly and unapologetially own your childfree status, and never worry about what other people have to say about you. Your uterus, your business.

Heal Your Inner Child Before You Have A Child

In a recent Instagram post, we described that some women choose not to have children because they're still healing from their inner child wounds. Shoot...is wise to mention that some women probably HAVEN'T healed their inner child yet...

I LOVE Being An Auntie. I Don't Need To Be A Mommy.

Check this out: I spent quality time with my nephew the last time I visted Atlanta, and asked him if he wanted to meditate before bed. With curiosity in his eyes, Cameron said, "Sure." I found my favorite guided meditation video on YouTube, we sat Indian-style, closed our eyes, and took a deep breath before getting started...

The biggest misconception people make about childfree women is that we're "selfish." That's SO not the case! In fact, I believe women who consciously make the choice NOT to have children are the most selfless people. Here's why...
