[quote=Anonymous]OP, it is possible to come through the other side of this grief. It will take time though and its worth exploring the benefits of a childfree life. There are positives, believe it or not and once the loss associated with infertility lessens a bit, you will start to see it as a different path. Also, as your husband is on the older side, he may not have really fully appreciated how taxing child rearing will be as an older person. I am thinking of some of my friends where she is 43 and he is in his mid 60's and he looks positively ground down by the experience. Perhaps he should spend more time looking after very young children as this might help him gain some perspective? I am now 41 and DH is 44. Technically we could try again but we do wonder whether we are too old to be parents now, in terms of the exhaustion/demands etc. [/quote]
