Is it even worth ttc at 43

I have 2 children from previous marriage and 1 from from second marriage at 39.
Dh raised with me a few days ago about having another.
I’m 43 now so would be 44 when having the baby. I researched some stats on having a baby at my age and it was very negative.
Is it even worth going down this road?

Do you want another one? There’s nothing from stopping you from trying and there are women who have babies in their mid to late 40’s, but it depends on what you actually want. I’m TTC my 2nd and turned 40 last month, but I’ve been trying since 37 and I’m still on my fertility journey. You may feel like yours is done, or you may still want to grow your family. Forget about all the stats. Everyone is different.
