Hi OP. This is a pretty quiet area of the site, if I were you I would report your post and ask for it to be moved to another topic, maybe the pregnancy topic would be a better place? You should get more replies that way!

You should be able to see three dots in the bottom right hand corner of your post, if you click on that and select “report”, you can ask mumsnet to move this thread

Hi there all,

We're moving this to conception at OP's request.

Well I'm nearly 41 and trying. If you are fertile and ovulating it's certainly possible, but I suppose, like me your chances are lower. Its not unheard of though. Good luck.

I had a dc at 43. After a mmc at 45 my gp told me I would not carry a baby to term at my age.
I continued ttc but nearly 48 now and not had a bfp since the mmc.
Obviously some women do as per news /celebs etc.
See your gp for some testing.
Mine was happy to check bloods but nothing more past 42.
