I'm repulsed by infants. They're so whiny and slobbery...?

Question

They just disgust me! How do I get over my phobia of wee children.

(I can't stand touching them. When I touch one I wash my hands immediately after...)

Answer 1

Believe me, I consider them a lot cleaner than most adults I know.

Answer 2

I felt the exact same way. I basically still feel the same way but when you love someone, the way I love my nephews, you just get through it. My sister has two boys and feels the way you do but they are her boys and she loves them and gets through it, not necessarily over it.

Answer 3

Don't have one then.

Just imagine, you were like that once and so was everyone around you.  I used to be a little repulsed until I really got to know some of them now I'm in love...

Answer 4

Not everyone wants to have kids. So enjoy being who you are and if  you see a baby don't go up and ask to hold it. Maybe some day you will change your feeling about infants but if you don't that is OK too.

Answer 5

me too you can add old ppl to that list

Answer 6

I didn't think I liked kids much..... until I had some (2).  Totally changed the way I felt about children.
