I have one ds aged 6 months who I am struggling to get to take a bottle. I am 40 years old. I am seeing my chances of having another child fade away. It is looking like I won't even get to start trying till I am 41 and I have pcos. So this is my question, if YOU are an only child, how is it? Was it okay as a child and is it okay as an adult? And were you part of a wider extended family? My ds isn't and is very unlikely to have any cousins, and even if he did they would be hundreds of miles away. I am worried about him being lonely. I think social connectedness is the most important thing in the world and I am worried for him.
