[quote=Anonymous]if you want a child as a single mom, by all means have one. Some of the best moms I know in DC are single-mothers-by-choice (no partner, donor sperm in both cases). That said, I'll jump on the bandwagon and ditto the others---your chances of conceiving a FIRST baby at 43 are infinitesimally small. They're much smaller than if you were 41 and even smaller than if you were 42. Sure, there are moms around DC who are having kids at 43, 44, 45. They are either second+ kids or the results of donor eggs. The infertility clinics around here (there at least 5 major ones) are all cranking out dozens (and some hundreds) of donor egg cycles per year. These are the majority of your older 43 pregnancies that you see in the DC area. Your general health doesn't matter much when it comes to fertility. You can be in spectacular health and be competely infertile. You can be a 40 year old mal-nourished heroin addict and get pregnant instantly. [/quote]
