I’m 43 years old, almost 44, and have not had children yet (starting over after an abusive marriage and divorce), but it’s still my dream to be married and be a mother. I often feel sad and yearning because my thought is that my time is running out at my age to have a baby. I’m struggling to find an intentional thought that will help me feel peace and come from a more positive place while trying to fulfill my dream of having a family. My mind gets stuck in the loop of knowing that my body has a deadline.

C – biological clock
