[quote=Anonymous]I had my first at 38 (second at 40). I think that the reasons you are unsure about having kids should make you feel comfortable with having an only, if that happens. Frankly, though I love my kids more than anything and at times like having a larger blended family, I am envious of those with only one child. Their lives are much, much calmer than ours and I think we overextended ourselves, given our advanced age and finances. I might have made a different decision had I truly known what it would be like--but I have a grown stepchild who not independent and a special needs child, so this may play into things. That being said, I would have been very sad not to have had one kid--though I would have led a happy and fulfilling life for sure. You cant do everything in life, so I say you think about what you would regret most--not trying? not having a kid? having a kid? Few people feel regret about having a child--but there are some.
