I might have felt differently had I ever had children, but I can take them or leave them (preferably the latter). Any maternal feelings got ruthlessly squashed when my sister's kids (4!) got sticky and/or cranky.
Two of my friends dated all through high school and college and got married. Neither wanted kids. The mother of the boy asked her son what he wanted for his eighteenth birthday and he told her a vasectomy. She was outraged. She did get grandkids from his sisters though.
