Hello
I am new to this. My mum passed away unexpectedly 2 months ago at only 58yrs, it was a huge shock to my family and We are doing ok. For me, it's still very weird as she was a really close friend as well as my mum so it's been hard as there are so many things I would love to chat to her about and share things.
My husband and I have been thinking of starting a family for a while but waiting until everything such as finances sorted. I now feel this terrible burden that I can't put our future children (should we have them) through the pain I'm (and my siblings) are going through right now should something happen to me if I was a mum.
I realise that we don't generally think about things like this when planning to conceive but my circumstances are making me think twice.
Has anyone else experienced this? Any experiences are welcome.
