[quote=Anonymous]Women have healthy kids at this age but the fact that your DH is not on board is a huge strike against. And there's no way to guarantee you'd have a healthy pregnancy. Despite your history (which does weight in favor of a straightforward pregnancy with minimal complications) you and your fetus will both be considered high risk. Are you prepared to terminate if early tests indicate high chance of a genetic abnormality, for instance? It sounds like your DH would be but you maybe wouldn't, which is a huge problem for both of you. If you had no children or just one and were thinking of this as your "last chance", I might give other advice. But you have three kids. Your husband does not want more. It might be time to let go of your baby years. We all have to do it eventually! It's hard but universal -- at some point, you will have no more children.[/quote]
