That's exactly WHY i'm pointing out how NOT special it is to be able to conceive, and how we should be placing praise on women and parents that actually prepare for caring for children.
Adoptive parents have to jump through hoops to receive a child.

Just pointing out the inaccuracy within your statement. Not only can not every woman conceive, a great many are not able to carry the baby to full term. I think you will find that any parent who has conceived and given birth, a very high number of parents do regard it as special.
It's a matter of personal choice whether mother is stay at home mum or can juggle worklife/career - bearing in mind, the child will ultimately benefit in different ways from either of the choice that the mother makes. I'm sure that it won't make the mother love the child any less and vice versa.
