I was talking to my Aunt on the phone the other day and she was telling me about her friend who's got pg naturally at 50!!! (She wasn't trying) Apparently they had quite a laugh coz her friend told her how she was lying awake in bed with her husband waiting for their 20 year old to come home from a night out, and she said to her husband you do realise we'll be 70 when we're doing this for the next one!

Hi all,

Ive only just joined this site and I was reading through the 'over 40's' section and feeling rather disheartened. Then I saw this one and I felt sooooo much better. I'm newly married (5 months) and we decided in the New Year to have a baby of our own (I've two already 24 and 20). Thanks for something positive.

This was just what I needed to read today! Thanks for sharing. We're meeting with a new accupuncturist who specializes in fertility on Monday, and it's good to feel hopeful again.

Hi! just dropping in from ttc over 35. This is more my speed as I'm 42. So happy to read this thread. It gives me new hope. Dh and I were married in Aug./2011 had a MMC at 12 weeks in Nov.2011. Just starting to feel like my cycle is returning to normal so hopefully we will all get our BFP soon! I would really recommend acupuncture and herbs for those of us that are over 40,it just gives our bodies that little extra boost! Baby dust to all!

Baby dust everyone,

I am struggling with staying focused. Is this enxiety or obsession all I want to do is search about TTC all day-night long. So that might be addiction, lol

41 Yrs old,Just begun TTC few months ago then AF became absent right after,which is now 3 months in a row. I thought I was prego at first because that was my first try,but I was not Preg.

Has anyone taken Dong quai? and does anyone know if it is safe to take with baby asprin?

 

[marathongirl]

Nina- I would ask a qualified TCM professional. They are the ones that prescribe the herbs and would know how they would react with other things.

I see lots and lots and lots of women 35+, some IVF but most natural. I see a good number of 40+ women too, again, mostly natural (I'm a midwife). The oldest woman I've worked with was 50 and she'd been trying 12 years and got her BFP in the end

Thanks so much Elski. That does give us all hope. I really believe health has a lot to do with it and my doc says I'm the healthiest 42 y old he's ever seen! Here's to all of our BFP's

Absolutely!

I have just turned 46, I don't smoke or drink and my FSH is 6.4 and Clomid is working for me on my first cycle so my insides haven't given up the ghost just yet!!!

We can do it ladies!!
