Single Mothers by Choice
In the Telegraph, this article appeared about one women's experience of 'going it on her own' or becoming a single mother by choice - that is having a child without a partner with assisted conception.

One of the interesting points the writer makes is that:
'An alternative explanation is that women are leaving it too late. Research indicates that by the age of 30 one third of British women have not yet decided whether or not to have children. Researchers at the Family and Child Psychology Research Centre at City University London found that two thirds of SMCs who chose DC did so because they felt that they were running out of time to meet Mr Right.'
