  I'm 45 and I'm a single mom by choice.  I love it.  Don't need to worry about custody battles or nothing at all.

  I'm not crying I'm chopping onions. I'm 41 and this will be my journey soon.

  Am 46 and am doing it! I found out today that my fiance 67 year old  is not on board.  Am not afraid if everything  I feel stronger 💪 wish me luck 🙏

  This seems so much more viable than trying to find a relationship first. Also not  ever having to have a custody battle!

  I just watched a Filipino guy who spent almost $200,000 in Russia just so he can have a child and he's also single. He's not rich or anything but he really saved up his hard earned money because he wants to become a parent so bad. I want to say that I respect people who have the guts to do something like this. It's better to have a child on your own than to get married or force yourself to have a relationship with someone just because you want to have a child. I also have so much respect for the doctors and nurses and all of the medical staff who helps people with their IVF journey.

  This just killed me. I’m 43, single and if I cannot have my own child then I rather adopt then going through pregnancy at all. I’m happy to see her she made her dream come true.

  I love this story. I'm also a single mother by choice, I'm 41 and have a 6 week old baby after 7 rounds of fertility treatment over 5 years. Its a dream come true to have this child and cudnt be happier. I think its great that we can now do this and not miss out just because we didn't meet the right person x

  I am 74 and chose a man that I married to help me have children. The marriage didn't last. I wish I could have had more options.

  I'm so proud of every one commenting <3 I haven't seen a single hate comment yet. Supporting one another choices regardless of your own opinions is a great thing :)

  I love your Mom!!! I'm about to be a single mom but not by choice. Your story gives me a fresh new perspective and honestly is a breath of fresh air in this cruel cruel world. Love to you and your bundle of joy!
