You can do both. You could try having your own and start adoption proceedings in the meantime. You may not get pregnant but you might have a shot at adoption depending on what type of child you are looking for and how long you can wait, how far you are willing to travel and all sorts of other hoops you are willing to jump through.

If you do get pregnant and are allowed to adopt, then your child will have a sibling and you will be helping an unfortunate soul. If you get pregnant and the adoption process falls through, you still win. If you neither get pregnant nor adopt, volunteer to help kids in some way..

I really doubt that it's too late, but only you two can answer that question for your own exact circumstances. I urge you to discuss this with your GP and with a fertility specialist, and let the specialist know aheqad of time that, if you decide to try to conceive, you will go to someone else, so that you will get an unbiased opinion.

Not enough information. Neither of you are too old. The thing is after the agony of giving birth, an adopted child is exactly like one you give birth to.

Children, like a good dog, will immediately grow on you and very soon you will not be able to differentiate between one who is adopted and one who is the child you birthed. People who go through long periods of birth enhancements with fertility doctors usually do so for reasons of Ego because in reality, there is no difference between a two year old you birthed and one you adopted. There are so many children needing homes I favor adoption.

Far too many people give birth who have no business birthing children. A child in a loving adoptive environment is far better off than with natural parents who wouldn’t qualify to have pets if requirements were in place. This is not advice; it’s just my opinion.

You two talk it over as long as you need and decide what’s best and just do it. Maybe it’s best just to love other people’s children, friends, relatives, neighbors. This is what I now do with dogs, when I want to travel, I go to the airport with no thought about who is taking care of Fido; I rest assured that his owners will do just fine.

If you had sex now and conceived, you'd give birth at 39 (or thereabouts) And be watching the child graduate from high school when you're 57. If you want any children at all, I would recommend trying out foster care, where you help raise a child for a shorter period of time that can end before your energy does.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
