Really not sure where to post this but thought I'd try here. I am in my early 40s. I have two gorgeous DC, but was always desperate for just one more. For a variety of reasons, that is definitely not going to happen now. Although I feel so amazingly blessed with my family as it is, and know I have nothing real to complain about, nevertheless I have this constant ache for a third which I just can't explain. Many friends have three (or more!) and I think my sister is likely to as well. Although I will be so delighted for her if so, it is awful to admit that I anticipate feeling horribly and shamefully jealous too. Has anyone else felt this and does it subside, in time? Please tell me it does.
