Want to keep me company? Give me stories of hope?

Kind of, but I have been trying half heartily for years. I had a MC at 43 and no luck since. We already have kids.

I don't have any stories of hope but I do sincerely wish you all the best. Stay strong and keep on believing it is going to happen xx

Hope? My friend had her second set of twins at 47. Her first set were 17!

I had DS naturally at age 45 last year. Would love another but DH doesn't want more and we had been trying since I was 41 - I don't think another is realistic for me even if DH was on board given that it took us so long but everyone is different. Good luck, it's uncommon but it does happen.

Luisa Dillner in The Guardian wrote a weekly column about having a baby at 47.

A couple of friends of friends did too and apparently all was well.

I am 45 (almost 46) and trying. Cycle was like clockwork until I took Pregnacare Conception and I haven’t had a period for 70 days now - wish I had read before taking those supplements that it causes delays in cycles but there you go. So no cycle to go on, so actively trying every 3-5 days while AF is on holiday in the hope I get lucky as some people have reported still ovulating although delayed cycle. How’s your journey going?
