Does anyone ever talk about the feeling we get as women when everyone else in our lives are having children or getting pregnant but we are not?

In my right mind I know I do not need to care for a child right now and that’s okay, but the feeling in the bottom of my stomach that I may never get to achieve my dream of bringing a baby into this world later in my life gets me every time.

I know when my times comes, my partner and I will be ready.

I know that until then there are more lessons I must learn.

But, I can’t help to wonder what it would feel like to give and receive that type of love, to have a family of my own.
