Hello, I am also very shocked dear to read your post. Your post shows that life is unpredictable. Nothing is impossible. Those who keep strong will get something good in future. And those who lose heart remain empty handed. Today, many ladies became disappointed by listening about their infertility. But they should not. If they just read your post. They will be very positive about their pregnancy issues too. Dear your doubts are very true. As in this age, your pregnancy will keep you confused throughout the 9 months. But you have to just keep yourself calm for the sake of your baby. And just hope for the best. Follow your doctor’s advise. Take rest. And do shopping for your baby 🙂

Trisha so happy that you conceived at this age naturally, unlike me!! I have been ttc for nearly 9years. It has been a long journey with hope and disappointment. And yeah, the real factor is age, but don’t stress. There has been no absolute condition that age would hinder your infertility. I have seen many couples who have been pregnant at 40 and 45. I was baffled a shattered the perspective that “age” is any factor. Thoygh it is, but ot for everyone. Some are super lucky to conceive at any age. As for the complications, you can consult your Obgyn for any perceived risks. But if you have no specific history of complications then you may have a safe journey. Good luck

Congratulations to you hun.You are very lucky. You got the gift of a child at this age. It happens very rarely. Usually, at this age, it becomes very difficult to get pregnant. Mostly women cant conceive in the late thirties.I mean I couldn’t get pregnant at 35. Apparently, my AMH was very low. Now you should consult an OB right away. There can be complications. Though I hope there are none. The doctor can guide you better. Wish you a healthy pregnancy. Good luck with this new journey.

Health is very important. There is no way to overplay the importance of good health with a pregnant mom in her 40s. The female body needs a certain amount of calories and nutrients and then baby comes along and demands even more. Mom needs to take her prenatal vitamin and eat healthy foods every day. The additional calories consumed should be in the form of protein and not fats and sugar. Prenatal testing takes a new turn. Women who give birth in their 40s are more likely to have a child with chromosomal disorders. For this reason, the obstetrician will request the mom undergo an amniocentesis to test for Down’s syndrome and other disorders that could affect the health of baby. Start or maintain an exercise program. No matter the age of mom, exercise is essential during pregnancy. Not only does exercise prepare mom for labor, but it can help with reducing the chance of blood clots and swelling. If mom does not already exercise, the obstetrician will be able to outline the best program for a beginner.

Good luck to you on your pregnancy. I’m 43 year old now.
I’m married now and i was married before.
From my first marriage i had no luck with having children although i conceived for 3 times.
I had many complications while getting pregnant.
I was pregnant thrice but had miscarriages everytime.
I am married for second time i want to have a baby now.
Having a look at my previous pregnancy period i guess it is not a good idea to be pregnant again.
So i talked to my husband and have agreed him to go for surrogacy option.
Surrogate are willing to carry our child and the clinic had said that the surrogate will have no effect on the DNA of our child.
The child will be off my and my husband DNA.
I also contacted some surrogates who are willing to carry someone’s child in their womb.
Now we are looking for a perfect surrogate to carry our child in her womb.
I also met some mothers raising babies from surrogacy procedure.
I have contacted many surrogacy related clinics and had gathered a lot of information regarding this process.
I guess someone here will also be going to surrogacy and will guide us.

Trisha good to know that you are pregnant. I am happy for you. at least you didn’t lose courage. We should not lose hope. there is always a path where a will exist behind a subject. You should not dishearten. Because when nature wants to give you something special then wait is a compulsory part of it. your disappointment was genuine because at such age woman think like they can’t ovulate. Other people also encourage this hopelessness condition. Trisha, I can understand your situation. You are in such a confusing dilemma. But my advice to you is just going to the doctor and have your checkup. If you are looking for the flowchart, then google map will help you greatly. Have an appointment and let me know. Thank you for your affection.

Congratulations for your pregnancy success. Honestly speaking i got shocked after seeing your post. I am a daily visitor of this forum. It is hard to find such news. Getting pregnant after 40 is very rare. I am happy for you. I wish you good luck for the pregnancy journey.
