I’ll happily be an aunt or grandma one day.

Aww lovely, hope you don’t mind me asking but did you get pg naturally at 45? X

Yep. Adopted my first then later divorced his dad. Met my now dh and we were pregnant when I was 40 which was the biggest shock of my life then again at 45. Both amazing pregnancies and gave birth to gorgeous boys 😊
