Pregnancy at 44 ?
I am a 44 yr old woman. I had a daughter when I was 41 years old. At 43 I had two miscarriages. I'm still trying for a sibling for my daughter. I would like to hear from others who have had successful pregnancies (normal pregnancies, w/o donor eggs) at age 44 and above. Have you heard of any cases of women this age that used Clomid and were then successful?
Thanks,
Olivia

Hi MelzieWelzie,
I'm not sure if you still follow this message board, but I'm very interested to know how things turned out for you. I'm 43 now, and desperately trying for #3. I've had 8 miscarriages, so i'm more than just a little scared. I have two amazing and perfect daughters, so I believe it's possible to have one more. However, I've had 6 miscarriages since my youngest daughter was born. I'm wondering if there's any hope for me.
Thank you,
Cindi

I am turning 44 tomorrow and I have been trying for a year to get pregnant..no luck! I have three healthy children...ages 21,19 and 15. I lost a child in 2007 due to complications with Strep B. I was 20 weeks pregnant. My husband and I would love to have another child! Reading these comments from everyone gives me hope. I am just going to keep trying naturally. My doctor told me 2007 that I was getting older and if I wanted another child to not wait too long. I, for some reason, did not realize what she meant until now! ;0( However, I was really scared to try again due to the baby's death (she lived six hours). I am now not trying as hard but just letting my luck play out. I have regular periods...every 28 days...like clock work. Wish us luck!
Hi,
It is great to read all the comments. I just turned 43 this last June, and got married to my second husband a year and a half ago. He is now talking about wanting a child. I have a 20 year old and a 18 year old already. He has never had his own, and has been raising mine with me for 9 years. I am at a crossroads!!! Not sure what the right thing is... My girls are so busy with their own lives it feels a little"empty nested" and I am not doing well with this feeling.. I am healthy and fit.. Any thoughts or similar circumstances out there?
