The heartbreak of not having more children

Im 54, i have a lovely 19 year old son who is a really good lad and really loves his mum, he is a good person. And i know some woman don't have any kids and im grateful for him.
soon as he was born i wanted another child, i never thought i would have only one, I did get pregnant once more when he was 3, after a year of trying but had a miscarriage , then my marriage turned very abusive and we had to flee.
ive been on my own raising my boy ever since. The Constant longing for another child has never gone away and i can't bare the thought of living with this pain for the rest of my life, i just wish it would stop.

I just wonder if anyone else feels like this.

I'm so sorry to hear that you still struggle after all this time. Have you had counselling or anything like that? Just as it seems like you have been sitting with this for a long time and would be good for you to find a way to make peace with it.
