Things change. Women can not safely say they do not want kids and mean it, there is always a risk. The couple Scott is talking about (my friends too) the guy wanted kids badly, the woman had no intentions of ever having a child in her life. The guys sister had a new baby, first time the woman met said new baby, she wanted a kid, just like that.
Sadly it is not a happy home right now as has been said, which might have something to do with the wife making such a drastic switch to go from never to wanting. Who knows but all I know is women cannot say 100% they do not want a kid because it takes the tiniest of triggers to make them change their mind.
