First I was not ready and now I feel I'm too old
I'm 36 and up until 35 I felt I was not ready to have kids. Actually I live with my partner for 8 years now and we did not try until now. In my head I always thought that we will try when I turn 35. Kids were not a priority and it was something I was going to do one day, the later the better.
Then some life circumstances changed and when I was finally became ready and turned 35 and was about to TTC, I had to move to Nepal, Kathmandu, one of the most polluted cities in the world. I have decided to wait since I did not want to get pregnant and be in the terrible unhealthy pollution. A year passed by and now I'm back to USA and suddenly I feel myself very old and I have an urgent desire to have kids asap, and feel like this is the most important in my life now. Everyone I knew had babies just last year when I was in Nepal (at least 8 people from my social circle). Every time I look at facebook a new person I know is having a baby, even the ones who are single and older then me. We started trying last month, but I feel very stressed, confused and frustrated. When I walk, I see bunch of people with the babies or pregnant and I feel frustrated and old. Can anyone relate?
