I'm in my fortys have two kids happily married and have a chronic health condition. I'm in no position to have another baby. I've even tried a job working with children but it got too much with my health condition. What was your way of getting over this feeling?

Volunteered at a local playgroup - I get my fix of cuddling babies/entertaining toddlers while the mums have a cup of tea, and I see how tired they are and remind myself all the reasons why I wouldn’t have a third.
