I’m 35 and suddenly madly broody! I’ve been adamant I don’t want anymore DC (have 2 DS’s 10 & 13) and found it hard. I was a single mum until meeting DH 5 years ago.
For many reasons it’s just not feasible to have another (will give details if anyone’s interested). But despite knowing this, I’m still really tempted to go for it.
I recently had multiple dreams about giving birth to a DD, could this have messed with my mind somehow and convinced me I want one?
I’m so confused Confused

Just hormones (happens as we approach 40), you should just wait it out if you and DH don’t want another and the feelings will go away by themselves.

Nope I was so broody late 30s. I was glad dh had the snip as we would have had more which would have been madness for us due to space, money and dc needs

It's totally normal to go through this as you get closer to 40.

I'm my experience, the sudden desperation not to get pregnant is as intense!

Dreams certain mess about our emotions.
