[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, I had my last child at 40 and 10 years later I just had a truly "out of the blue" health scare. We were really worried and it was not something that runs in my family. All I could think about was how selfish I was to have a baby at 40. Let me be clear- that's me. I am not judging anyone for having a baby past 40. This is the DMV and loads of us have babies later than other areas. When I looked at family genetics, I didn't question my choice. 
Also a +1 to all of the PPs posting about perimenopause. Thank goodness mine has hit later- it's horrible. I can't imagine having a very little one while going through this. 
Whatever your decision, good luck. [/quote]

So the logic is if you had died at 50 with a 15 year old it would have been ok but dying at 50 with a 10 year old is a bridge too far?

I don't get it.  Dying at 50 would be terrible.  The end.  I'm glad you're ok.[/quote]

It was my reaction. I can’t explain or excuse it. At 40, I never would have imagined this happening.
I appreciate your comment.
