Tina,
I don't think you're selfish at all. It seems to me the desire to
procreate and rear children to adulthood is the most universal of
human yearnings.
Your question touches on an aspect of this that is dear to my heart.
That is all the children who need homes and families and someone to
love them. If I were you I would at least consider adoption.
