[quote=Anonymous]On a similar note - I have an acquaintance who had four children who met and married a younger man in what seemed to be a fairytale romance. He loved her kids, but wanted one of their own, too. She really did not want more children, but wanted to make the new husband happy. So in her mid-40s, this woman underwent complicated and stressful IVF with donor egg, pregnancy complications, bed rest, etc. that ended with a beautiful baby girl doted on by everyone in the family.

Fast forward a few years and the DH decided he was not so much into family life - he moved out, they divorced, and gave her primary custody of the daughter he fought so hard to create. Of course she loves her daughter but is now back in the trenches of early childhood with an indifferent co-parent.

I would highly recommend couples counseling to make sure both of you have a chance to really talk through all your feelings and their consequences honestly and thoroughly. It sounds like a very tough decision for both of you. Good luck.[/quote]
