Tried for years for a second dc. Have one dd who is nearly 11. I am now of the age where I am too old and I need to move on from the constant hope and disappointment every month. We won't try IVF and I've had a few miscarriages. I am extremely grateful for my dd but look at those with bigger families with some envy and also am finding it quite hard to be around friends who are having more babies. I suppose it's closing that chapter in my life and accepting it's a bit different to how I thought it might be
I have a fulfilling career and lovely husband so have lots to be grateful for. Any tips on navigating this stage of life?

@eatdrinkandbemerry I'm sorry but what is the point of your post? It's not helpful in anyway to tell someone who is struggling that you ended up having two more pregnancies?
