Help

Having a family is a desperate and deep seated longing, and I feel dead inside for not being a mummy yet. 

I want little fingers curling around mine, and to breath in the smell of our baby’s head.

I had a baby that died and I held it in my hands. It was a long time ago. I am still grieving.

As a 38 year old woman, my chance of conceiving naturally is about 5% each month. 

My partner, who I love deeply, is unwilling to parent a child at this point in time, which leaves me little choice. 

He is younger and has the right to say no to me, it is his life too. He is entitled to live his life his way.

I am financially stable and have a good support network of friends and family.

I cannot wait any longer, it is breaking my heart; it is not a selfish thing. 

I can become a single parent by choice, using sperm donation. 

This is not how I want it to be.

  • Hi, I am so sorry to read your story. However I do not agree as to your chances, which depend on women's age but also your health is the matter. To know your chances you need to see your doc to have some tests. If they are fine, I would try to talk with husband.
