[quote=Anonymous]Look hun, all the advice you’ll get on here (including mine) will be clouded by people’s individual biases and agendas. You need to make up your own mind about whether or not you want another child. If you don’t, the road forward is clear. If you do, given your age and prior history with infertility, this might well be your last chance to give your dd a sibling. Yes, the circumstances are less than ideal, but guess what, if people only had kids, when the timing is just right, humanity would have died out a long time ago. If you decide to go that route, you absolutely can make it work. There are loads of resources, both governmental and through nonprofits that could help you with job retraining, health Insurance, etc. And you do have work experience! That decade, taking care of your parents? You could become a home health aide, which is pretty decent money in this area, then train to be a RN, once the kids are a bit older. It would be extremely hard, but, if you make it through, the rewards of the joy you’ll get from your surprise kiddo would far outweigh the pain. Best of luck to you, whatever you decide.[/quote]
