If she can do it, we certainly can right????

Elisabeth posted: When I started 'serious' TTC (trying to conceive),  my role model (if you will) was a woman who tried umpteen injection cycles (no IUI),.

She got a chemical pregnancy (early miscarriage) almost every month.

She was about to quit, right before her 46th birthday, and tried one more cycle, even though her FSH # that month was not ideal.

BAM! Nine months later, she gave birth to a healthy baby boy!

Her story did more to impress me, and to keep me going in the hard times we had early on, than anything else.

Cheryle posted: My maternal grandmother was 40 years old at the birth of her last child.

She lived to be 91 years old.

Her sister was 43 years old at the birth of her last child, and she lived to 93 1/2.

Susan posted: My mom was 44 years old when I was born.

She's 74 years old this year and still kicking.

I would think that the correlation probably has more to do with good genes.

Good genes are more likely to lead to fertility at a later age and a longer life span.

About Catherine: I am mom to three grown sons, two grandchildren and two rescue dogs. After years of raising my boys as a single mom, I remarried a wonderful man who had never had a child of his own. Unexpectedly, I found myself pregnant at 49!
Sadly we lost our precious baby at 8 weeks, and decided to try again. Five more losses, turned down for donor egg, foster care and adoption due to my age and losses - we have accepted there will be no more babies in our house.
