Pregnancy at 44 ?

[o_och]

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

ah! The doctor said, the oldest women he had help to conceive with her own eggs was 47. He works with your age and your own eggs.

I am 42, and like you, I had been told by at least 4 doctors that only donor eggs. It could not accept that, as I had still had my periods and notice fertile mucus every month on my period. Just when I thought I would give up, one night I was surfing the web and found one very good doctor in Guadalajara Mexico, who works with women of our age, but his protocol is ONE GOOD EGG. I made arrangements to met with him to discuss treatment. This December 2012, I traveled to Guadalajara where he retrieved one healthy egg. I produced 2 eggs with minimal medication, but only one egg retrieved due to my left ovary, was hard to reach. I am so sorry it has not happen to you, but don't give up.  Please check his site nhfc.mx

Can I ask, how they determine the risk factors?  Is there a certain test they do while you're pregnant or do they test the parents before?

I am considering chlomid-I am 44 and got pregnant first try when I was 41 on it, but we never did any kind of testing.  I am just curious because my doctor said there were DNA tests they could do to determine the risk of chromosonal defect.

Not sure if too much time has passed since you posted this. I am now 44 and seriously considering downer eggs.I've had two IUIs. I was made a window in my mid 30s but married again at age 42. I am just afraid of my thinking and if I will always be thinking, this is not my biological child or will I just start thinking automatically the baby is mine. I have no children and am so desperate for one.
