My grandma had her last one at 44

I guess I just don't know anyone who has had a baby past 42, and the ones I do know who had them at 42 both did IVF. Well, other than my grandma who had her last one at 44. My Dr. told me he only occasionally sees anyone older than 42 who gets pregnant naturally, and very rarely past 44.

Catherine, you can add me to your over 44 and pregnant list. I will be 45 on Nov. 1 and told myself that I would stop TTC when I hit 45. God has blessed me with this miracle and I pray with all my heart that I have a healthy little bean growing inside me.

My grandmother had her fifth and last child (naturally) at 47 having been told in her 30's that she could never have children. Unfortunately I never met her, but I gather she sat around a lot and drank umpteen cups of tea - Posted by Anna Pollard

I had an uncle whose wife was either 50 or 51 when she had her 12th child in the 1960's. They had grown up family, some of who were married and had families of their own. - Posted by Elizabeth Reynolds
