Older Mother And Conception Advice Required

[Guadagnia]

Hi All,
Im currently pregnant, expecting Dec 07, I wanted advice especially from more mature mothers. I want a another child, after the dec baby, but feel im getting too old. How long have you waited before you try again ?

BTW, Im 40 in Dec.....................

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Didnt want to post there because I think it may rub peoples noses in it who are trying to concieve, having been thru fertility probs with my first, I dont want to upset anyone..

Especially wanting another baby so soon, but if the mods agree ..please move it to TTC.

Thank-you

It fine in either section so let me know if you want it moved or not, and welcome to the forum

I think it depends totally on you, not all women feel the same in their 40's - some still have the energy they had in their 20's, some are more like 80

Congratulations on your pregnancy

My stepmom had a child at 42/43. She had 2 beforehand, but has waited until now to try again (her little boy is 4) and she's having problems.

Hiya I am expecting my first in 6 and half weeks time (yikes) I will be 40 in December too (the 28th) We are hoping to have a second baby fairly soon after this one. I have it in my head that we will wait maybe 5 months before trying again but I think we need to wait and see how we get on with no.1 before laying any definitely plans for no.2.

I'm currently expecting number 2.

I have a daughter who will be 7 when this one is born.

I am 44. There's life in the old dog yet

Good luck with whatever you decide to do. It might take a little longer to happen, but it's certainly not impossible (well for most anyway)
