I wonder if anyone else has had this or am I going nuts here?
Bit of background, we have one primary school age DC. We thought about having another one but didn't feel very strongly about it and both quite focussed on our careers. Then the "right time" seemed to pass and we both agreed that we wouldn't have any more. e
I was completely happy with this and had no desire whatsoever to have another child. There was just literally nothing there, I was completely happy with the DC I have and would have dreaded going back and staring over again.
About a month ago and completely out of the blue, I have been hit by the most INSANE level of broodiness. I almost cannot think about anything other than having another baby. Its like a biological force that I am unable to control. It has no logic to it as I have a busy career and it would change our lives quite a lot to have another baby now. DH is understandably a bit perplexed by it all and not overly keen to jump in to this kind of decision. I don't know what to make of it. Has anyone else experienced this kind of sudden onset intense broodiness and where did it lead to? Did it go away? Did you act on it? If someone had told me a few months ago that I would feel this way I would have laughed at them. Probably of relevance is the fact I am 39, which makes me wonder if my ovaries are sending me a loud and urgent message to bloody get on with it. .
