Usually, I smugly feel more the latter than the former.

Sebastian, don't be smug until you've knocked up wifey- it ain't ordering pizza.
The missus and I have lost two great friend couples since popping out baby #1. They stuck as friends for awhile, wanted kids, but couldn't. They eventually couldn't be around us with the new kids stuff. These were really tight long term friendships.
