I'm desperate for a child, I go to sleep and wake up thinking about it.
I'm 28, and want to make this happen. I'm in a great job that pays fantastically, I've got a lovely house too. I'm prepared and have structured for everything possible.
As I'm gay getting a child the 'normal' way is out of the question. So it looks like I'll be going to a clinic or asking a friend that I know and trust to donate.
I know I can do this as a single mum and be absolutely fine, but part of me wonders whether I should consider co-parenting more with a friend I know as I don't want them to feel like the odd one out. (Maybe I'm thinking too much.)
If I do it alone though I will have to go back to work as I want to provide my child with the best life possible, and quite frankly I won't be able to do that without working.
Is there any help from birth for working single mum's. I'm not sure where to look for the help part.
Sorry for the rambling but any help or advice would be appreciated.
