It’s a bit disappointing to read how unlikely it is for me to get pregnant but I’ll keep my fingers crossed!

I have 3 yr old girl but would love another child. At 45 soon to be 46 I know it might be a long shot! Starting accupuncture and just a healthier lifestyle. Sprinkling baby dust to everyone...

I am 45 also and have 2 boys (12 and 7) and we are ttc #3 (last one :) I have just failed my first ivf so looking at my options. Got pregnant with my boys on the 1st try so, even though I know that my age is against me, it is still hard to believe it might be over for us. We we decided to give it a year. Good luck to you.

Lucy • Jan 11, 2018
Thank you and yes I know. I think if it doesn’t happen naturally we will just have to accept it wasn’t meant to be. My boyfriend is 38 and said he’d never wanted children until he met me. He would love us to have one but we’ll be ok if it doesn’t happen- we will just have more holidays to make up lol 😊

Good luck Lucy. It’s not necessarily that your body can’t do it...more likely your eggs. But you never know...you might get the golden one.🤞🏻If not there are other options (though I know it’s not quite the same as your own eggs). 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

I have 4 girls..21,15,12 and 10. I am divorced from their father. My boyfriend has no children, he’s 38 and I’d love for us to have our own child. Maybe it’s just too late for me but we can hope. I find it hard to believe my body can’t do it again!!!

I know it's tough but don't give up.  I'm about to turn 41 and have a 14 month old and we just found out i'm pregnant again at Christmas time, something I was convinced wouldn't happen. Well, it CAN happen. I would encourage you to stay positive and keep trying cuz you never know.
