You need a new doctor! Seriously.

i don't think your odds are 0.0001% especially if you were very fertile previously. they could easily be 10-15%.

I know 3 women who got pregnant over the age of 45, naturally. It is possible.

This is my family. My sister is 52 with menopause nowhere in sight.

Several natural pregnancies in our family conceived mid/late 40s.

I am 48. Got pregnant on first try at 35 and 38. I am staying on the Pill until menopause (for other reasons as well; cleated by GYN).

I wouldn’t assume anything. Not your business.

why would she be doing this? she had a partner. if she were freezing anything, she froze embryos.

How many long term Hollywood marriages do you know of?

I had no idea my favorite librarian was packing such heat in the male partner department.

they have been together for a while; it's not news. but i am surprised how little attention/reporting is there regarding this couple (as opposed to brangelina, aniston etc).

damn. see, I didn't know she was with him.

Do they have other kids?

Craig has an adult daughter and Weisz has a child too.

And Geena Davis. don't know her age, but donor egss is my guess.

Halle Berry. the only surprise i believe.

Gwen Stefani. donor egg.

Tina Fey. frozen embryo.

Salma Hayek, IVF

Celine Dion. IVF -- a well-known journey

Nicole Kidman. surrogate. frozen embryo is my guess.

Janet Jackson. donor.

Celine Dion has been open about having to do over 6 cycles of IVF for her twins. These women all have access to the best clinics. I would t be surprised if they did the same.

Way to pull things out of your ass. Tina Fey was really up front about her struggles to decide whether to have another because her child wanted a sibling. She got pregnant naturally at 40, which, especially since she already had a five year old, is really not that unbelievable.

not many but i know even fewer women who are almost 50 and froze eggs 20, 30 years ago. it was not that common, she had little reason to do it and it's very debatable if eggs frozen decades ago with old technology would survive thaw in 2018.

And here I have friends in their low 30's worried that they're still single and need to have children soon... ha!

All of the women I know who had babies over age 45 (I know 3) had extreme complications and two of the three kids were born with Down's Syndrome.

Something to be aware of.

I am sorry but you're quoting statistics from the 1960s when most mothers who had babies at that age were impoverished, and already had huge numbers of children in their homes.

These mothers having children in their 40s are wealthy and look after themselves. The statistic however has not been updated for over 50 years and idiots like you trot it out at any given opportunity.

Such a bore and so ignorant.

Right now it is more celebrity types who are having late in life babies but with the heavy push for late 20's/30's women of all walks of life to store eggs later in life babies will become more and more the norm. My sister had twins just before she turned 50 9+ years ago. At nearly 60 - she is healthy, active, in an amazing job and I don't see her parenting as any different than her much younger kids. Who cares in what form the cells came together for that baby-lucky her!

I think part of this becoming normal is for prominent women being open about using donor eggs, etc so that it decreases the stigma of older ladies seeking reproductive assistance when they can’t just magically conceive naturally after 40.

Careful ladies, you'll attract the "donor egg use is child abuse" poster.

Why is it that I only hear about women conceiving a child the natural way only on the INTERNET????!!

Never in reality.....
