[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]47. one pregnancy at 46 even after being diagnosed with blocked tubes (only lasted 7 weeks).  We have kids and so not doing any treatments. But every month we try, and every month I hope, and every month I am just a little disappointed.  When does it stop?  Perhaps this is the wrong forum.  Maybe I should be in the 50 and above forum to get an asnwer

I do want another and feel my family incomplete though so much that I am willing to waste time and treasure and mental anguish on either IVF with doner eggs or adoption. [/quote]

Op I am asking this sincerely: what does an “incomplete family” feel like? I always thought that was a strange term. Your family is what it is, no?[/quote]

It's weird, but when I go to make hotel reservations or dinner reservations, I naturally imagine needing x number of beds, and then I remember, no, I only need y number.  You know when people lose an arm and then can sense a ghost arm there?  That is a little what it is like.  Or like sitting down to dinner and there is an empty seat at the table even when there isn't.

That is the best way I can describe it. It's not terribly distressing. It may come from growing up in a family of 5 and so feeling like 4 is incomplete.
