[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here is the link to the stats for fertility between 35-40 http://www.babycenter.com/0_chart-the-effect-of-age-on-fertility_6155.bc[/quote] Thanks, PP who posted this. What I don't like about this is that the black line on this chart reflects how likely you are to be able to get pregnant, and things don't look so terrible for the 40-44 age category. I'm what my RE calls a "fertile 41 year old" because wow I can get pregnant easily. Without an RE, even! It doesn't really matter though because I miscarry and miscarry and miscarry. We know that at least one of these m/cs was due to a chromosomal issue, and we're pretty sure it's all age-related. The chart I'd want to see is the chart showing the likelihood of getting pregnant with a pregnancy that results in a livebirth broken down by age. [/quote]
