I Want A Child At 35

As someone who is not getting any younger anymore, never gets pregnant ever, and has some physical needs (not the kind of needs you have in mind though) to consider, I think it's time for me to make a decision that will definitely change my life.

I want to give birth at 35.

Is it wrong to wish for this? Is it wrong to want to become a mom? Is it wrong to just do something just for the sake of getting pregnant?

Okay, if we talk about morals, yes, I am aware that my idea is a bit immoral. I should find someone to become my husband first before even planning something like this.

But before you judge me, here are a few of my reasons why:

Age

Age is a big factor in my decision. I've heard that women who never get pregnant ever will have a hard time bearing a child at the age of 30s.

There are several risks too: miscarriage, birth defects, twins, high blood pressure, gestational diabetes, and difficult labor.

So if I wait for more years again, then these risks will surely go doubled. Plus, as you all know, I'm a person with a disability, so if I keep waiting then it will be hard for me to handle my pregnancy.

I only want a baby

I don't think I could find a husband material. Someone who will truly love me unconditionally. Someone willing to take me as I am.

And I don't want to wait and waste my time for nothing. Actually, I've already thought about it many times since I was in my mid-20s. My initial plan was to do it in my mid- or late-20s, but my conscience tells me to wait.

I did wait for years. I met a few guys and all they did was break my heart as well as my trust. Now, I don't think I can trust again.

I don't want to adopt

And sorry, I don't want to adopt a child. I really want to have my own. That's unless I'm infertile, then I might reconsider adopting an infant. But for now, I'll stick to my plan.

So what exactly is my plan?

Find someone. Discuss the plan. If he agrees with my terms and conditions, then that's it!

I've already prepared some rules too. Here's a list of them:

  • No strings attached.

  • He cannot disclose any information to anyone unless I say so.

  • The baby will use my last name and not his.

  • He will be known as the father, but he is not allowed to demand or anything.

These will be my rules for now. Who knows I'll add more in the future.

Am I ready to have a baby?

I do think I am. I have save something for the future and with BCH, who knows I'll be financially more ready.

Emotionally, yes! I also believe that if I'm a good furmom to my furbabies and aunt to my siblings' kiddos, then I think I'm more than ready for my own. Plus, I have my mom to back me up I guess.

The only issue is that I'm a shy typed person so I don't know how to execute my plan. I know it seems easy, but it's actually not. I'm not worried about people's opinion, but I just don't have the courage to really ask someone to do it.

By the way, I won't do it to any random guy though. There will always be certain requirements that I need to check before I say YES to this guy. And I'll make sure to pick the right person so I won't deal with future problems with him.


Closing thoughts

Before I lose the chance to become a mom, I'm just going to do it without emotions involved. Honestly, if only we could just download a baby on Google Play Store, I would love to download my future little one. I don't mind paying though.

Am I desperate? Maybe, but it's already planned for year's so hopefully, I'll have the guts to do it soon.

First I thought that you wanted to trick a one night stand into becoming a father. 🙈 I'm glad that's not the case. 😅

I don't think I could find a husband material. Someone who will truly love me unconditionally. Someone willing to take me as I am.

Why do you believe that?

I hate to say it, but are you unwilling to work on yourself for the sake of having a relationship?

I think Eybyoung gave you really good advice. Having a child is not all about completing your life. It's also - or probably even more about the child.

I'm not the best person to suggest that, but it would be better for the child to have parents who are doing well together.

I understand that you don't want to put yourself in a vulnerable position. However, maybe you can find a partner who you can live and raise the child together with - even if you're not heads over heels in love with him.

Well, to be honest, I'm pretty far from an expert. 🙈

But I think having a partnership with a man with a great character could work. That man may not be the most attractive person in the world, physically, but I think for a long term relationship the character is more important than looks. As long as the looks are acceptable.

Of course, that is not a guarantee that it will actually work for years to come, but I guess it's the best we can do. There are no guarantees in life. 🙈

I know. I do want that actually. But trust me, based on my experience, 99.9% of men prefer someone better. And when we say better, someone that is far like me. I also had an ex who's not even good-looking but just like the rest, he left.

This is the reason why I'd rather be a single mom than wait for that man who would accept me. I think the .1% who's not into looks are already taken or dead. Lol. But then again, I don't want the baby to suffer because of my action, so it's better not to do anything stupid.

If you have someone to recommend, let me know. HAHAHHA.

Haha, I think that in the western cultures at least there are many men who are involuntarily single. However, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to start a relationship with one of them as some have developed a hatred for women. But you seem to be different from most women. 😊

I think that you are quite a rational person. That gives you an advantage over most other women. 😊

I definitely think that there is hope for you.

However, the kind of men that are most promising may be too shy to initiate contact with you. That's why I think that it would be a good idea if you did that.

I know that's very unusual and not Disney- love- story- like, but the good thing is that you don't need any skills for doing that, because other women very rarely initiate contact. I'm sure that most men will be happy about that happening.

It's very unique. Imagine if this story happens, they may not end up together, but they remain good friends, then it's worth the risk. I don't expect a disney-like story, I know that's gonna happen or impossible to happen. But if someone is willing to make my dream comes true (LOL) without blackmailing me in the end, then I'd be happy to welcome him in my life. lol

Hmm your plan is nice but try to consider the baby welfare growing up without a dad, take it from me. No matter how much you poured love to the child he/she will be incomplete, in the later he/she will start asking who is her/his dad.. and felt insecure, inferior and anything that has something to do with psychological and mental aspects.

I am sorry for all the heartbreakers you have..but pray that someone will come to help you fulfill your dreams without leaving you. Please learn to trust again but with limits, and know that there is no perfect relationship, we always have lapses so we should expand our patience to compromise.

Hayst. Yes. Eto rin din siguro. I know because of my niece. She grew up without a father figure dahil hiwalay mama and papa niya. And she was only 1 when she last saw her papa. Although a few years ago, me communication na ulit sila but iba pa rin kung present yung father.

I think it's very good that you want to be a mother. But I’d be afraid the dad would kick up the rules he initially accepted once. I don't really know how this works, can't you get / buy sperm from a sperm bank and artificially fertilize you? If you don’t want a man in your life by any means, this might be the best option.

-Hi Sis! It's a brave and bold decision..and I admire you for your determination and courage. But having a biological child only comes with Gods blessing through any way or instrument., like having a husband, that is the legitimate way in moral aspect, yet each of us has our destiny even the child that is going to be born because each has its purpose why we need to exist here in the mortal world, because of Gods plan for us with a purpose. Maybe your plan may be the way for you to have a child..but please take extra careful Sis, you should know well the person even face to face. it's not as easy as ABC, there is a physical involvement, you could never be sure of your feelings, and at the same time of the guy's intention. Please don't get offended it's a payong kapatid ha? Have a soul searching and spiritual unwinding..ask it religiously with God and he will give it to you in the right way in his perfect time, this kind of thing that only God could ever decide when it will really come to you ok? I have a n adopted child, I got him at the age of 18 because I witnessed how his mother died from giving birth to him, since I could afford to raise a child with the help of family I spent a lot of money to get him because you know well the policy here in the Philippines 🇵🇭, without money influence so hard to adopt legally then I was so young that time and single..but in the future I also wishing to have 2 to 3 children as I get married..thats why I also need to become an NBI to investigate well, my husband to be in the future hehheh! Just kidding...Career goal first for me this time...All I want to say Sis..seek Gods guidance..ask this according to his will ok? He has plans for you..enjoy life..you are a blessing to your siblings kids and to others just enjoy what's in your hand..count your blessings! When you walk in Gods path pretty sure you will get the best thing for you..I could never say it's a child or a husband..what is sure to happen IS, what's best for you is what God will give to you! So cheer up! You are beautiful, brave and courageous..your worth is a gem! OK always think of that!!!! Love lots Sis! ❤ Have a blessed day!🌷

Being a mother is a big responsible. That's why even my mom and I are not close, I really loved her , honor her and respect her. When I still young I always say that I just want a child, but seing those people that still looking for a father even their mom is already enough and raised them well, the longingness having a father is still there. The first foster kids that we foster before and now adopted of Americans, still longing for their real parents. Adoption - that's my line before, I don't like to adopt. But when we became a foster family saw alot of babies being abandoned, I was like - I'm going to adopt if I can. It's not their fault to be born without a parent. It's like my cat, I adopt straycat instead buying. Breed because no one wants to adopt them and give them a good shelter. And I neutered him because I don't want him to pregnant other stray female cats and abandoned them 😂✌️. For me, adoption is not bad. Even God adopt us because his original tribe is Israel ,Jew .. but us pagan adopted him because of his unconditional love. Oh davah article na.. 😂. Wala lang 😂..

Sa totoo lng sis meron dto samin gusto din mgkababy nang walang husband. And yes, nafulfill nya ang goal nya. Ngwork sa abroad ay yung amo nyang lalaki ngkaanak sla at no strings attached. Nung nbuntis na sya umuwi sya ng Pinas at dto na ngstay. By the way nag ipon muna sya for the future bago inexecute ang plan nya. And now malaki na baby nya kasing edad ng baby boy ko, going 2 years old na. 😊 I think walang masama dun as long as wala ka nmn inaagrabyado. Wanting a baby isn't a sin after all. Pero who knows the right guy will love you and be blessed to have a child with you. ❤️

So, you want to conceive naturally but only want a man for a sperm donor. If you want to eliminate emotions from the equation that may be a little difficult. Your best bet would probably be IVF with an anonymous donor. And from a fertility specialist I spoke to before, a woman's egg ages faster after 35 so if you want to preserve the quality of yours, harvest it at a much younger age. The older the egg, the more difficult it is to fertilize and conceive.

I'm 33 so I guess I should be in hurry then. Lol. Anyway, i want to do the natural way. I want to meet the guy face to face and know him a little more so I know what kind of donor he is. Plus, i think the IVF will cost me a lot.
