I know of a CAM partner who wanted a family and had a kid through surrogacy without settling down with a guy.
Point I am trying to make - go with option 1, have a baby alone. That will be a lot easier to manage than you think it is. I am assuming you have a family (retired mom dad would be best) close or at least who can relocate for sometime, after your maternity leave ends. Having a baby will be immensely immensely satisfying.
Option 2 - that you can anyways do even after having the baby alone. If you are destined to find the right guy, you will find him before or after option 1. Shouldnt make a difference.

If you cannot provide any meaningful inputs to OP, at least refrain from shit-posting on a thread like this.
wanting a partner to share the child rearing burden, focus doesnt seem to be on having a meaningful time with partner but more on sharing caring responsibilities
you are financially independent, you do not need societal approval to make your life choices, be whoever you want to be
work, dont work, be a mother, dont be a mother, it is upto you, dont let others or anyone else decide for you
I guess there's probably no one shot solution for this other than keeping an open mind and hope for things to work out.
I really hope it does for you.
Good luck
Goodluck, I hope you dont ever find someone and die working in that T-1 Cabin.

I tried using plenty of dating apps but most of the men there are so creepy that there's no way I could ever interact with them. I always wanted to be a mother and have my own biological children. Dating my colleagues is not possible because my firm has a rule against two people working who are related in any manner. Another issue is, I know how restrictive marriage can be for women. There's so many men who put up a fake mask to impress girls, and show their true self later on. Pokey in-laws is another burden I'd like to avoid.
Lately, I have been thinking of two options. Firstly, having children out of wedlock. Apart from societal constraints, I feel it'd be hard to raise a child as a single parent who is almost always occupied with work. The other one is, to wait and give more time, but the biological clock is already ticking for me.
