Are there any childless older ladies here who want a child but fear they won't have one?

I don't want a child right now.
I do however fear getting too old to (naturally) have one of my own, then wanting one.

I used to really worry about this. Now, not so much

Yes. I always wanted a child my whole life I knew that one day I would be a mom but life got in the way. My deal was that I must be married before a baby. I got married and got my first college degreed job at 32/33 so I felt behind I guess. I jumped into a stressful job and didn't feel ready yet to get pregnant.
I just felt not ready. I put pressure on myself to achieve then before you know it bam 40 now.
