I've got a dd (4) and have been on my own with her from 4 months. Have been incredibly broody ever since having her and the older she gets the worse it becomes. Have been single now for nearly 4 years-there is nothing inherently wrong with me I don't think-am slim, normal height, behave (unless dd winds me up too much!!) have two arms and legs and have nice house and job, but no one seems to want me! Or if they do they want me for the house and the job and hate/can't cope with dd.
I so desperatly want another dc, but want to try and do it properly, i.e., have a stable relationship, live with the dp/dh, get dd totally comforable with the set up etc, but I can't see any baby resolution for at least 5 years in that case, providing I meet someone (!?!), and so feel it would be v unfair on her as the age gap would be far too great. Has this ever happened to anyone and worked?
