[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I had my first child just before I turned 43 and my second just before 45. Both naturally conceived. It's definitely possible. Also have two friends who did IVF at 46. And there's Halle Berry too. It's definitely possible, but obviously trying sooner rather than later is recommended.[/quote] A successful IVF pregnancy at 46 that is not donor egg would be extremely unusual. [/quote] Both cases were non-donor, but I know in at least one of the instances, the embryos were frozen a few years earlier. See this, birth rate for women 40-44 is on the rise. http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr61/nvsr61_05.pdf[/quote] I don't think anyone is disputing that women over 40 are having children more often, it's most likely though that the increase is due at least in part to donor eggs. The chance of a 46 year old naturally conceiving is approximately .1%.[/quote]
