I am going to be 39 in October. I want a baby so much. I gave birth to a stillborn daughter in April. I have to conceive again in the next 5 months to have a baby before I turn 40. Is it selfish to want a baby at my age? I miscarried twins in '02, and have no other children of my own, and a stepson who is 11. Having a baby at such an age has risks, plus most women my age have teenagers, and even some are gramma's. I would be almost 60 when my child graduates from high school. But still deep down on the inside of me, I feel like I am missing so much. I feel empty. My husband says he just wants me to be happy and to have my dream. But will I be cheating my child by having a child at my age?
