[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 49 yr old unmarried sister  is due to start fertility treatments. She is has severe anxiety and depression. Her 30 yr old boyfriend is a terrible father but she can’t see it. He has two kids from different women. She is a professional, earns well, and has everything she needs to take care of herself but she is so stuck on having this baby. I don’t think it’s going to
happen for her but want to be supportive and at the same time I’m also annoyed at her not being able to see what’s in front of her .[/quote]

OP, what does "due to start fertility treatments" mean? I agree with the PPs who say that [b]no ethical RE would do this[/b]. Are you sure she actually has scheduled plans to start medication, etc, or is she just talking about it?[/quote]
What are you talking about? Do you realize how many women in their late 40s have babies through fertility treatments? Just look at all the celebrities who had babies in their late 40s.

A lot of these celebrities are telling half truths. They use a surrogate and/or donor eggs, but don't announce that part.

Honestly it's messed up because so many people just see the headline "Jane Superstar a new Mom at age 49!" without realizing a surrogate/donor egg was used and then build of the impression that successful pregnancy at age 49 happens much more often than it really does.
