Pregnant at 47 years old
I am pregnant at 47 years old.
Is there anyone out there who also had their first child at 47/48 years old?
I am in need of some advice...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
One of my grandmothers was 48 years old when she had my Aunt, who is only one month older then I am.
She also had at least two other children in her 40s, with no medical help.
I'm holding on to this information as increasing my chances.
Good Genes and all!

My grandmother's sister gave birth at 43 years old (surprise baby), after they told her for over 13 years she would never have a second child.

One woman I know had her first child at the age of 49 years

Hi there,
Just picked up this post, and wondered how you are doing. I'm 47 (48 in March) and have just found out that I am pregnant. Would be great to chat more....
