I have a 2-year-old child. My son is an incredibly great, uncomplicated child and having him is pretty much the best decision I've done. He is the love of my life, my everything. I have a strong desire, and are actively planning to give my son a sibling. My son's father and my former partner, with whom I have been together for years, does not want to have a fifth child as he has 3 adult children from his previous marriage. We are now separated and share the responsibility as parents, and have the same idea about family, values and parenting style. We communicate efficiently and "speak the same language" with similar professional and educational background (he is specialist in child psychiatry, I'm clinical psychologist amongst others).
I am in my 40s (eggs mid 30s), single by choice and is a professor/clinician specialist by profession. My priorities have fortunately changed since becoming a mum. My desire to have more children is growing, my biological clock is running out, but I lack a suitable partner. Sperm donation is out of the question for me because I want to know the father of my child. I believe it is the best interest of the child as well, in my view a child deserves to know his parents. I am actively planning a trip to the mentioned clinic abroad to give my son a sibling; Looking for a co-parent with whom I share similar: values, idea about family or in parenting style, etc. There is ongoing controversy in the debate of the importance some (including myself) lay on having a sibling or not in child development.
