Anyone had a baby at 43?

DH and I are talking about trying for another. I’m 42 now, so would be 43 if we were lucky enough for it all to work.

Anyone have any experiences?

I know our chances are slim. But looking for other people’s experiences!

I had my 4th at 42. He was a complete surprise but the best gift ever. He’s kept me young. He’s now almost 10.

My grandmother had one at 50, completely naturally. So it can happen. :-)

I had my first (and only) at 42. Conceived pretty quickly, but with a couple of miscarriages first.
