ok, I guess I misunderstood the question. I was thinking that you wondered about the physical side of this, and also about how it would be for the child, having older parents.

I was going to give some input from the view of someone who was born to parents in their late 40's.

but seeing that you have now stated that the decision was already made (I thought maybe it had just "happened") then it seems to me you should talk to your doctor about the physical part of it, given that we do not know your medical history, and that you and your mate have already discussed the rest.

That should be all the reassurance you need. If it's not, go back and talk to him and the doctor some more, until you feel clear about what course you are on.

Would have skipped this message, except I said further up I would post something further down... and there is no way to go back and delete messages on this board so far as I have found yet.

O well!
