[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basically no chance with her own eggs. Some chance with donor or frozen eggs. But its her RE's job to tell her that. As a friend, just be supportive. (I'm not saying this to judge your friend, as I also did IVF. But I didn't understand the age stats for IVF until I was doing it.)[/quote] While the chance with own egg is extremely low the chance with donor egg or donor embryo is almost equivalent to a younger person. I think PGS tested embryo Chance is about 45% live birth assuming no uterine issues. In any case I went through pregnancy at 47 with no complications, although I definitely had increased monitoring during pregnancy. Totally worth it! So definitely be supportive and non judgemental. I had some very supportive friends and they did make a difference! There is at least one book geared towards older mothers (in their 40’s). I think the one I read is called the Joy of Late Motherhood. [/quote]
