[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] While I'm so happy for you and your family's good fortune, I do worry that posts like this unfairly perpetuate the myth that women have well into their 40s to conceive children. The reality is that the chances of women over 40 getting pregnant at all are somewhere less than 10%- you're more likely to get into Harvard. And each year the chances continue to drop. I'm not trying to rain on your parade (or anyone elses) but again, I worry that we women are encouraging ourselves (and each other) to ignore facts and science, in favor of hope and luck. Everyone thinks that they'll be the exception, but very few actually are.[/quote] I disagree this. We don’t know what the reality is, because very few women try to get pregnant in their 40s. I have been pregnant twice in my 40s and have two healthy children. Natural pregnancies. Misinformation like this si why so many women have oops babies/abortions in their 40s. [/quote]
