[quote=Anonymous]OP, ignore the naysayers and do it if you and your husband are both in agreement!! Your husband may eventually regret not having his own bio child, especially as his step-teens grow, move on and start ignoring both parents (as most do). I've had several friends (male and female) in similar situations... new baby/babies in most case brought the whole family closer together with older kids (including teens) suddenly more interested in joining family activities and vacations! Their successes are based on honest family discussions, decision-making, and giving the older kids their own time and attention. If you have concerns as an older mom, visit the Infertility Forum to allay your concerns and get lots of helpful advice (but beware the naysayers and old mom haters also lurk on that forum). FYI, I because a first time mom in my 40s and had no pregnancy health issues, in fact I felt emotionally happy-giddy every single day, minimal morning sickness, normal or low BP, average weight gain (and quick weight loss) and uneventful delivery of a healthy baby! I say go for it![/quote]
