Pregnancy at 47, is it remotely possible?

Im 47 and i already have 2 children ages 12 & 14. Im divorced and in a wonderful relationship with the love of my life. We are trying to get pregnant but have been unsuccessful.  Should i give up on the whole idea of pregnancy or is there any hope?

I don't think it's fair to the child if you conceive at this age.

your chances are lower but i believe it is still an option as long as you have not started Menopause.   on the plus side you can talk to your dr and they won't make you wait the yr of trying because of your age.  so you have options.

Good luck
