Childless male after 10 years of marriage. All are having children. I have reached the age of 47. I cannot sleep at night. I just want my own baby…
(I do not want IVF advice or adoption advice. I just want to cry out loud.)
Why though? We are a couple in 40s who have decided not to have children and we are very happy, we were both divorced before and got married again when we were 40, so we made a conscious choice not to have children as it will be very stressful health wise and otherwise also, but we are very happy with our life, the key is to accept life as it is and to make best of what you have, we are planning our savings for retirement we have decided we will join a retirement community when we get old, we have good friends, we travel and have meaningful conversations…we never felt our life is lacking something…so its all about how you see things, its totally in your hands to make your life happy…
I have an uncle who had kids early in life, now both the kids are settled in us, and he and his wife live alone, so even if you had kids and something like this happened you have to still be alone as soon as we accept our situation and make the best of it, then we will feel happy and content too…
It might be okay for you. I also tried to have that mindset too. But the urge for my own child is too strong in me.
