That's not true. Given my (and frankly most people on this site, we're a bunch of techbros) socioeconomic status, the expected utility of at least my first couple of kids would certainly be positive. If the net expected utility of their entire (hypothetical) lives is greater than the (possibly negative) difference between my live without and with kids, then there's your rational motivation.
