Why does my mother continue to insist on calling my child by the wrong name?
After many years of longing, I met my wonderful husband at the age of 38. We knew pretty quickly that we wanted to be together and that we might want to have a child, but we were not willing to rush into parenthood without knowing each other better. So we visited the fertility clinic. The first thing I was told was that my ovarian reserve was so low I’d probably never get pregnant naturally. Three rounds of IVF later, we had frozen three embryos.
I feel like I should mentally and practically move on, with gratitude for all that I have. Give away the baby stuff. Enjoy my daughter and live my life. But we have those embryos! And he doesn’t want to destroy them either! Finally, there is the issue of my age, which really weighs on me. I had mentally set 45 as a limit for myself but now I find myself wondering if that is an arbitrary endpoint.
