44 pregnant with my second (and last).

I feel 400 years old most of the time. I find myself surprised I can identify with Egyptian mummies.

Give birth with a midwife. They will only make you do extra tests if you actually need them not just because of your age.


I'm with a midwife now - GW. They recommend the tests routinely. You can decline any and all, but once the recommendation is out there, you worry.

You don't hAve to worry. What is most likely to happen is that you will have a perfectly normal baby , regardless of what tests you do or don't take . I'm the 42 yo ttc pp and im just not doing anything other than the 20 week scan.

I'm very sorry.

I used progesterone supplements to address a short luteal phase at 38 and 40. Two healthy kids from those pregnancies. A few chemical pregnancies and one later miscarriage too.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I had miscarriages at 40, went to IVF, then had success with donor egg. It does happen for some 40+ women without intervention, but many do need help.

So sorry for your loss. I got pregnant at 40 on my 2nd IVF cycle, but miscarried at 9 weeks as well. Tired of delaying the start of our family, so moved to DE IVF to increase our odds and am pregnant with twins after 1st cycle.

8 years is not an extreme age gap to me.

So so sorry. We have a 10 yr age gap and it's working out great so don't let the gap deter you! Good luck to you.
