x2 Abortions in my 30’s, I’m 36 in a few months. Now I long for another baby.
I have one child who is 13. Who I raised alone. Father didn’t want to bother.
Stayed single, for 6 years. Met my boyfriend 2 years ago.
He has two children, 17 and 12.
Anyhow within the two years of us being together I caught pregnant twice. And had two surgical abortions. For our own reasons. We don’t live together, money, age, etc.
Any how. I’m 36 next year. I’m currently on the pill.
I now feel like I’m ready to have a baby.
But my concerns are my age.
Obviously I know I can get pregnant, but age in regards to raising a child.
If I get pregnant next year. I’ll be 36. I’ll be 40 with a 3/4 year old. 50 with a 13/14 year old. My partner is 40. So he’ll be 50 with a 10 year old. Is it too old to have a baby?
Any help would be great or shared experiences. Thanks.
