having another child doesn't replace the one you lost. now i understand when my mom told me have kids they will be your future. i should have listened to her. now i'm too old. i'm in my 30s. i should have had a kid earlier.
regrets will eat me alive.
my mom always wanted to be a grandma.

The thirties is not too old to have a child. Are you saying it's too late because your mom has died, and you never gave her a grandchild while she lived? Not everyone is ready to have a child early on. If this is the right thing to do in your life, you can still pursue it. My father died before I had a child (and before I was married.) I was 26 when I lost him. I was 34 when my son was born. Do I regret that my father never had a grandchild? Well, I regret that my child never knew his grandfather, and that my father missed the joy of knowing my son. I think they would truly have loved each other. But we can't change these things in life. I will be forever grateful that I did have my son, even if my father never met him. There is a part of me that knows that Daddy and my son will meet one day, and that will be joyous!
