    Hi there I am here to give hope to women who are 40+ years old and wanting to be pregnant. My friends first pregnancy was at 40 and now have a wonderful 4 year old son. This time she was not trying to get pregnant but was also open to it if it happened. She did use Pre-Seed because she had it and wanted lubrication. Her husband and she had unprotected sex twice that cycle (CD 11 and 12) and WHAM BFP at 8dpo. Very very faint…had to squint to see it and a stronger FRER BFP 10DPO. Not too many symptoms. She felt really good, actually….just twinges. A tiny bit of cramping and that’s it! She knows it is still really early and anything is possible but she still remains cautiously optimistic. I just want women out there to know you CAN get pregnant in your 40’s naturally!! It is possible!

    Hey, Stormi. How are you doing? Thank you for such a motivating post. This is great. Congratulations to your friend. It gets harder to conceive with age. However, this does not mean it is impossible. I know a woman who got pregnant at the age of 43. There’s still hope for people in their 40s out there.

    Hey Stormi, glad to see your encouraging post. People like you who give some time for the well being of other people are worth encouraging. Your post is really a motivator. There are many ladies who are actually worried about their increasing age and its effects on their pregnancy. But now your post will keep them tension free. And they will start thinking positively about their motherhood. Keep on posting such encouraging stuff Stormi.

    Hi! I hope you’re well. This is a very positive post. Good to see people sharing positive experiences which can boost other’s morales, greatly. Most people lose hope very quickly. They start looking at other options when they can actually still get pregnant in a natural way. Thank you for sharing this.

    I am so happy for your friend. I do believe that such can happen. Although there are always some negativity with the health of the child. Personally would not “worry” over higher rates of genetic disorders. again, you just had a baby, what 40 months ago? as for who can care for your 3 year old while you are giving birth. isn’t that prime baby sitting age? i know lots of moms who had babies in their late 30s or beyond. My aunt had her third child while the first two were teens when she was 46. and this was in 1994! get prenatal care and keep up your good health. to get pregnant by accident at your age bodes well for the health of your unborn, is my personal opinion. it’s obviously good sperm and egg, i think. To take hold with a one shot opportunity. as for the golden years again if you will be 63 when this one graduates.

    Stormi thank you so much for sharing your story. It’s relay inspiring and enthusiastic. People who are facing failure and didn’t make a try again will get inspiration. Congratulations to your friend who conceive in this age. Mostly woman thinks that pregnancy comes during your early age. As far as your age increases your period cycle becomes abnormal. When your period cycle stuck then makes hurdles in your conceiving. No doubt age is a factor to consider. But not as much as we should become hopeless and disappoint. I know it’s not a simple phase. But people who keep more courage and patience finally get their reward. There is a wait that exists in nature’s phenomena but bot slackness. You will get your gift on a best suitable stage of life. Nature just wants to test you. how many calibers you want or keep this desire. Just keep calm and wait. Everything will be fine.

    Hi! I think it’s great your friend was able to conceive even in her 40s. Kids are really a blessing. I wish every one them. If anyone is facing troubles due to their age, however, please know it doesn’t have to end there. There are many options for you. I tried surrogacy (for another reason). It’s been great for me. Wishing everyone here all the best!

    Hey! I hope you are doing well. Congratulations to your friend. I hope she remains happy forever. And thank you for an amazing post. It was very motivating. Women do ask such questions. They are confused about it. I think every woman in 40s should read this post. They should know that it’s not impossible to conceive naturally at their age.

    Hi everyone! As I am lurking on this site because my friend is trying to have baby number 2 at age 42. I thought it would be appropriate to give you her story. She married her husband late and they begun trying as soon as they were married. She had one chemical pregnancy, and one miscarriage at ages 39 and 40 respectively. Then at 40 she became pregnant and delivered her daughter at age 41. She was tracking her ovulation and her periods using the cervical fluid method. She was also on a low-carb diet. She knew she was pregnant the moment she conceived. She had what she can only describe as fuzzy static in her uterus. She had to wait 3 weeks for her bfp. She even went to her Midwife and had a blood test which showed negative. She was so discouraged and confused because she knew she was pregnant. One week later after a negative blood test and at cycle day 34 she finally got her bfp. Her daughter is now 10 months old.

    I so happy to hear that. And it’s so nice of you to put up a post like that. Most of the times when people ask about getting pregnant in their 40s, they’re told it is impossible. Which is why they don’t even try. Your post would really guide them. A friend of mine also had this age issue. I am definitely gonna share this with her. Bless you. x
