Following quite the traumatic birth of my first DC in 2013, I'd made the decision back then that I would not have a second child. I split up with my ex partner a while ago and have been seeing someone else (still quite early days) who has no children of their own.
We've had the chat about kids, to which I said absolutely not, and he is totally fine with this. Since that talk though I think about babies all the time.
My other concern is that I'm almost 35 so if I change my mind and want to have another, I need to make that choice pretty soon as we move into more risky territory.
Its such a big decision to make and I'm a bit stuck. Is 35 or over considered late motherhood or is that quite normal now? Do I really want another or does this overwhelming feeling happen to us all around this age?
