and for all the travel/experience life comments from people that don't have kids yet

no vacation has ever brought me as much joy as my daughter

and experiencing life with a child, witnessing that sheer joy and innocence, is more joyful than anything you and your partner could do

Just think how much more fun you would be having if you had a boy

Maybe, but I don't know how much joy I would receive from that. I know how much joy I experienced hiking and skiing through the Swiss Alps. And how much joy I experienced going to Bora Bora and hanging out in Dubai for a week. And I did those things with someone I love and am going to marry. We enjoyed those things together. Those are things that would be lost in our relationship if we had kids.

I can't compare those experiences with my fiance/wife to experiences with a child that doesn't exist.
