[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I agree with other PPs who say fostering might be a great idea! You're not too old. [b]I had a baby at 43 and had plenty of energy for that[/b]. And I know a few older parent couples at church who are fostering/adopting infants and toddlers.[/quote] As someone who had her last child well into her forties, I'm always amused by statements like this. Having a baby at 43 or 45 is nothing. It's having a 10-year-old at 53 or 55 that will do you in. PP, you are assuming that the leap between 45 and 55 is the same as the leap between 35 and 45, or 25 and 35. I'm here to tell you, it is not.[/quote] PP here...I'm into my 50's now and still feel like I have plenty of energy. Dc is 8. We just had a fun weekend with church, seeing grandparents (my folks) and Christmas lights activity. I do sleep well-no peri/meno insomnia for me! The couples at church who have foster babies are actually older than me.[/quote]
