Struggling with Fertility: Keep Trying or Adopt?

I have been trying to get healthy as I can and try to have a child since I was young. I have had a ectopic pregnancy earlier and misscarried. I am getting ready to be 43 this month should I keep trying or should I give up and adopt

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Aging does make pregnancy harder and poses more risks for both you and the baby. I would talk with a professional before trying again. I’m all for the dont give up attitude, but sometimes, it’s not healthy to not give up. 💕

Same here- I had my son at 39 and tried for another at 41 , I got pregnant right away but this time no heartbeat. Me and hubby made a decision followed my gut that it may not be meant to be—we tried more times but didn’t get pregnant. Personally we would just concentrate on our amazing kid and make his life wholesome , healthy and safe as possible. I’m get too tired , I want us to be stronger and healthier for our one kid. I feel like if I did have another , something bad might happen to the baby or myself. I follow by instinct and it’s incredible when my husband feel the same.
