Hey so I’m a single mom with a 3 year old and I want to have another child. I can’t seem to find anyone but one guy who I’m not attracted to but I know is attracted to me. I feel If I stay w him I can possibly get pregnant and actually have a meaningful relationship. I’m almost 40 and I know if I want to have another child I would have to do it now. So do I stay w this guy and see where it goes or do I continue to wait for the right one which at my age will probably never come…

I would wait I did the same thing but if I just waited longer I would’ve had both so idk it’s a coin toss.
Sperm donor and ivf… no strings attached
People have found the right one way older than 40. If your not attracted to this guy than don’t get with him and hurt his feelings. Maybe have a Doctor do artificial insemination

I feel if that’s the case and he’s not the “right one” you’re just using him, and it won’t work out for you anyhow

You do know you can have a baby all by yourself right?! Your trapping the guy your seeing for your own want of a baby! Go to your GYN Dr. You can do artificial insemination with a donor sperm.
If he likes you, he’ll want to do for you. Take the chance, he may be exactly what you’ve been looking for. Then again love finds you when you aren’t looking, good luck

Hi there! There’s several sperm donor groups on FB where men are willing to help. Most groups are vetted and moderated well. I’m 43 and 18 weeks pregnant, though we ended up using a known donor. Good luck!!
Sperm donor, is always an option
I feel like this is unfair to the guy when you won’t be giving him the love he needs because you’re really not into him and simply just using him to have another kid

Don’t just use someone to have a baby because you want a baby. Wait until you find the right person and a person you’re interested in. My oldest daughter was almost 7 before I had another baby. I never wanted to have kids so far apart but I waited til I was settled with a great man and partner.

If you want another baby but aren’t with someone you love then use a sperm donor. Don’t be selfish just because you want another baby
If you don’t see yourself marrying him why would you intentionally have a child with him ?

Don’t be selfish! Let that man be if you’re not interested in him. Otherwise, you’re absolutely disgusting to use him for your own gain. Go to a sperm bank and use IVF if you’re that desperate. Or I don’t know? Adopt one of the 100 of thousands of children in foster care.
You don’t need a relationship with a man, to have a baby. Just go to a sperm bank & pick one that’s genetically superior
Cryobank it’s like 700 bucks I think.
You pick the traits you want and they send you the sperm. Don’t trap a man for a baby.
Respectfully, that’s very unfair to him. You’re literally trapping him when you don’t even actually want him, you’d just be using him. That’s pretty cruel and selfish. I’d look into foster/adoption, or even a sp3rm bank

It is not right to play the guy period. What if’s are wrong in such a serious and lifelong decision that can and will effect his and the baby’s life. I think your selfish for even pretending with him now and especially if a child comes to be. If you’re so anxious to have another baby that you would use some unknowing poor guy for it then why not just get a sperm donor and become the single mother of two. Hopefully you can support them both alone unless that’s your real reason for using this poor guy. Shame on you

You really need to just choose artificial insemination. This man deserves more, what happens down the road when you’re sick of living with him. Now you’re going to have to share the child 50/50 and that’s really hard on a kid moving back and forth between Mom and Dad’s on a weekly basis. Neither of you will be able to move very far away without the other person saying okay and you won’t be able to move out of state without them saying okay and just don’t like that. They don’t like one parent being cut out of the kids life. Think about your child. This is not going to be a two-parent family for any amount of time. Try thinking of the child you want to bring into the world instead of just yourself.

Use a sperm donation or wait.
It takes a whole lot more to be a parent and raise a child then simply being attracted to a person of the opposite sex. It’s hard to raise children and having two parents that get along on the same wavelength and love each other is what children hope for and want. They don’t want parents who are divorcing fighting and not in love. Your child will find out eventually that you were not two people in love. Your child will find out dad was attracted to you but you weren’t attracted to him and you stayed with him just to get pregnant. How is your child going to feel? I guarantee as soon as your child is old enough to leave the house and cut you totally out of his or her life, they will!
I mean if you want a baby that bad go to a sperm bank and get ya some swimmers from there… If you aren’t attracted to him and don’t see a future with him, and don’t think you will ever love him, it’s not fair to him that you are essentially just using him for his swimmers. Either wait for the right person, or go get a donor but don’t lead someone on and keep it so that they can’t find their true happiness with someone who actually wants them.
You to old to know better!

I’ve been TTC for 8 years, since I was 37. I did 5 times, I also ended up with 5 miscarriages. Uhmm… how many women commenting on here are even hovering 40 and TTC? obviously you don’t know the struggle and how real it is. How many women commenting on here is a single mother and doing just fine without support from the father? It’s a two person decision to have a child, no one ever wants or plans for a broken family. You just better be prepared to be strong and a good one if you’re left in that position. All a mother can hope for is the father doesn’t turn out to be some deadbeat loser, if it doesn’t work out. Stop hating woman on woman for no real reason. Single moms are the strongest kind of human. Best wishes on your TTC journey.

I used to work with someone who really wanted kids but couldn’t find the right man. Once she hit 35 she decided to do it on her own through IVF with a sperm donor and she had a beautiful baby girl who is now 2ish and just had another baby also with a sperm donor
Really hope this isn’t real

personally, i would go and use a doner, if you want another so bad but don’t want to wait because of your age… go for it, why not? that’s why donors exist.

Sperm bank. No entanglements.
You COULD adopt… Plenty of neglected children that NEEDS a mom without involving a man…
Why go through the ordeal of finding someone your attractive to and it may never happen… or resulting to sleeping to someone your not attractive to just to have a baby… your ruin your self image for yourself and kick yourself asking WHY did I have HIS baby later…
Both are BAD DECISIONS
I adopt or wait…

Children are not pawns. Relationships aren’t a game. This is what is wrong with this country. The lack of family and respect for what a family is has been lost. Kids today have lost the most important aspect of what life is about. Having a good parent team is crucial in raising a strong child into a responsible respectful adult

I’d consider donor sperm. Then you don’t even have to worry about a BD of a relationship goes south. And one day you could have a meaningful relationship that results in the child being adopted by whoever you’re in a meaningful relationship with. Honestly I wish I’d gone that route lol
If you are not attracted to him its not fair on him to go there, it will not work
My son is 3 in May and I’ve been a solo mum the whole time. I have just started the private donor process to have another baby. No weird custody battles that way.

Deplorable.
Be honest and tell men in your life you aren’t looking for anything right now you just want a baby, or do artificial insemination. You have options. Don’t use a guy. How would you like it if someone treated you like that? Or your child grows up and he/she gets treated this way? You need to set the example.
