My heart wants one more. We have 2. I know I should just be grateful, but I really would’ve loved to have one more. I’m just sad.

Im so sorry your going through this. 😭 I got no advice as husband and I both agree to be done after this one. Did he say why he doesnt want another? Maybe the economy being bad? Idk either way im just sorry 😞 🫂🫶

Oh im so sorry 😞

I’m in the same boat. Almost the same ages too. Logic says stopping is our wisest option for many reasons. But in my heart I still cry. Message me if you just want someone to commiserate with. But reality is we are done and that makes me sad.

Omg this reasoning makes me feel even more sad for you.😭
My hubs & I had our first child together when I was 39 & he was 51, yeah it was a surprise later in life addition as he had spent his entire adulthood infertile & just decided to come to terms w/it. We’d heard stories of his condition changing, but didn’t think it would, especially not after 9yrs together. We kinda have a different outlook now that we’ve lived both sides, we’re established now & get all this great quality time w/our kids, why save it for grandkids when we can enjoy our own to the fullest now, we just wish our 16 didn’t have to endure our long work hours & sitters, our 4y hasn’t felt the need to grow up so fast. We’ll be rocking his graduation & maybe a sibling’s if we decide to have a 3rd, I don’t care if we’ll be 57 & 70 or, if a 3rd 63 & 76+, bc our kids are getting the best, most laid back part of our adult lives right now & the better part is hubs will be retiring soon so they’ll have both parents FT.
