Yay for Sunshine!

 

Yay for Sunshine!

We had another of pure, unadulterated sunshine today. 

So yay!

This is totally off-tangent but the thought of having a child at my age really stuck with me all day today. I am afraid of having a child with Down Syndrome. Is it totally irresponsible for me to even try? It’s like a one in 22 chance these days. 

I am a little sad.

    What a great picture!
    It’s not irresponsible to try. Do what feels right in your heart.

    I had my second child at 37 and he is a perfectly healthy 16 year old today. If this is what you want, go for it…rather than regrets later. Many times, I wished I had tried for a third.
    You have 2 beautiful girls. Congrats.

    Every pregnancy could be a risk. It doesn’t depend only on age. But no risk no fun!
    I would give it a try before it’s too late.
    Having a child is still the biggest present in life.

    You’re back! Previously I was having the same worries that you have. I was contemplating between having kids now or live the life I want to before settling down with kids. And then I realize that every pregnancy do come with risks no matter how old I am so I decided to do all the crazy things I want first before babies come my way.

    You’re a great mom and I’m sure you’ll do just a great if not better with a 3rd child. Best wishes for you.

    LOL what a cute pic!
    I was 35 when I had my daughter. Yes they took a sample of amniotic fluid at 3 months and that was pretty scary.
    There’s a risk with everything, but don’t let that stop you from trying.
    Don’t look back in regret.
    Your two girls are gorgeous.
