I am 43, I have a 11,8,4 and just turned2 year old. I also had a miscarriage between each viable pregnancy. Found hubby had a chromosone problem that increased chance of miscarriage.
Also do not have a rampant sex life! Last baby was conceived during a month we only had sex once. Never give up ladies. I am feeling a bit broody but am trying to resist!

I thought I'd add another uplifting situation! As I posted earlier in the thread, I am expecting and will be 42 when baby arrives. NO intervention, completely natural conception.

I have been preparing to clear out our den to move around bedrooms and prepare a nursery, so I am selling furniture and decor that I don't need. A couple came by last night to buy a rug. They had their 3 year old and their two month old children with them...and the mom was 42 when she had her newest addition! It was nice to run into an actual, real mom who had "done it" at my age. While I have older children, those two were her only children, so she started her family at 39!

My mum was 41(I think!) when she had my sister, who is now 6

I'm 37 this year my first took 8 years to arrive (hes 2.5 now) but I am now expecting number 2 after 4 cycles trying so don't give up hope even if it takes a while.

My ex-husband's grandmother was born when her mother was 45! This was in 1922, so NO possibility of fertility enhancing treatments. They actually lived a hard, farm life and her birth was considered rather scandalous in that day. (At 45, you were considered rather matronly and that you should be "put out to pasture" as far as sex goes). Her birth was not even announced in the paper as was customary since it was a rather embarrassing event.
But, it goes to show that it does happen! None of my 3 older children would even be here if a 45 year old woman hadn't given birth in 1922!
