Hi there, new to Mumsnet so apologies if I post in wrong place or am repeating stuff you've read before...had been TTC for 2 mnths, just did a pos pregnancy test - but I'm not delighted as I'd hoped I'd be. I'm 35, my dp is 45, we have no experience of small kids, and so many of my mates with kids have told me 'don't have kids, you're too independent'. I've previously suffered (mild) depression and I'm worried about whether I'll be capable of what's ahead. I feel daft saying this cos obviously I made the choice to come off the pill, I had this urge to have and love a child, dp is wonderfully supportive, felt I'd weighed up the pros and cons - but now I've tested positive I feel devastated. Thanks for listening.
