Hi, I'm new to mumsnet & also to the decision of wanting to start a family. I am 45 & my husband is 55. My husband already has 3 children (24, 22 & 5!) & I don't have any. This is both our second marriage & In my first marriage I basically put having children completely out of my head as my ex-husband wanted to start a business which I supported him with. Anyway we split (phew!) & I met my gorgeous husband who I married in December. Over the last 12 months I have been constantly thinking about starting a family & agonised over the fact that we're both 'too' old & had I basically 'missed the boat'. Having my step-son staying with us has made me realise that I do want to be a mum, bring a little person into the world to love, chersih & develop. My husband is overjoyed that I want us to, hopefully, start a family & constantly tells me to not worry about our ages, we're fit & healthy & god willing there is no reason why we couldn't & most importatnly shouldn't have our own baby. Any feed back, positive or negative, would be greatly appreciated. ;)
