How many of you had a child in your 40's?

Question

Kicking around the idea of a baby I am 43 and have two teens just wondering how it would make me feel physically at this age?

Answer

I just wanna say that you might want to ask your poll question without the 'no way too old option'.  Many of us on here don't have 2 grown kids or whatever...we are trying for our 1st at 40+ so even implying that we might be too old really stings.  
Other than that I wish you baby dust if you decide to go for another one.

Answer

I'm 38 and TTC, you're too old old when you decide you're too old, not when anyone else says so!  :)

Answer

I turned 40 recently I have a 21 year old wonderful son, 12 year old beautiful little girl and 19 week old gorgeous little man. We where convinced our family is complete but we where so wrong. One hour after the birth of my gorgeous little man we decided we want another bundle of joy. In fact we have been ttc since last month. I must be mad if I became pregnant soon we will have one newborn and one baby just over one years old. Are we mad 😱

Answer

I had my son at 43.

Answer

Having and raising kids, at this age, is the best. One is financially stable, and usually marriages are as well! I do wish I had been able to have children in my early twenties, only because it is easier and egg quality is better.

Answer

I'm ttc my first. I'm having blood work done again since the last run of tests were two years ago.

Answer

were trying to get pregnant after miscarriage in January

Answer

I got married at 35 and was pregnant 5 months later. I had my first son at age 36. I got pregnant when my son was 13 months old. I had my second son at age 37. I have had to use Femera, Estrogen, Progesterone, HCG trigger shot, temping, charting, ultrasounds, Preseed, soft cups, vitamins, OPK's, Mucinex etc..I conceived my first naturally. My second via the aforementioned. I got pregnant again, naturally, at 39. We lost our first daughter on my 40th Birthday! We are still TTC and looking into adoption too❤ Go for it if you are financially secure. Good luck!

Answer

I got spontaneously pregnant at 42 and honestly, I felt better than I did when I was younger- but unfortunately I miscarried and I believe I just had a Chemical pregnancy at 43... so, it’s POSSIBLE, but holding a pregnancy might be a challenge as your body works through the bad eggs
