would you have a baby without any family support at all around?

Just curious when people say they will move nearer their family when they have children for support whether anyone has done it with no family around at all to help and support? How important is it to have family around and would it stop you if you didnt have anyone at all and you wanted a baby??

we stay near by our parents my side are very close and dh is about 30miles away.
its quite important to have family near by for us, we dont have kids yet, but trying, but when they come and then we need childcare its already been agreed my parents would take the kids. it is due to the shifts i work

but i know friends who have no family near by and they get on just great
