I'm 46 and my DS is 13. I'm only 5 months into a new relationship. I'm having to deal with broodiness and am finding it hard to accept there will be no more babies for me at my age. How best to deal with this?

Think of all the fabulous things you can do as a couple without a screaming baby in tow!

I'm 36 and permanently infertile after 2 ectopics in 18 months - I've started to prepare for what life looks like With only 1 child. Infertility and recurrent miscarriage has been a massive part of our life for 4 years now - I'm ready now to put all my energy into DC - plenty of days out making memories, holidays etc

The ache of wanting more children won't ever go away and seeing sibling groups when I'm out is still painful and upsetting but I reconcile those feelings with being incredibly grateful for the one I have as many of my friends haven't been so lucky
