Hi-

it took hubby and I 18years to have our first baby. (Ectopics both sides, needed IVF etc etc, same old story)
💗She's now 2 and a half.

We both REALLY WANT another. I have 6 frozen embryos waiting for me still.

I mentioned to my GP and she balked and rolled her eyes and said I need to consider it very seriously.
(My blood pressure is an issue at the moment, but it's under control and I intend to get very healthy before I do go again).

What do ye think? Any plus40s out there with bp issues who've had healthy pregnancies? Would love some confidence but honesty also welcome.
Thank you for reading. (My first post, sorry if it's mislabelled)

If this is what you and your husband both want you should definitely try! My great grandmother had her last at 50, 1 month before her eldest gave birth to my mum! Best of luck!
