That’s like saying you only fired the gun at the target once, and you’re soooo shockeddd that it hit the target.
Why do we have these threads like every two months? Morons.
Because every single thread on this site that deals with having kids after age 30-35 gets dozens of comments saying your chances of getting pregnant at those ages are nonexistent and that most of those people you know who got pregnant actually had IVF and just didn't tell you.
Look at the Meghan Markle threads - she got married at 36 and half the comments basically said she was too old to be fertile.

It happens but statistically uncommon--congratulations.
I really don't think it is as statistically uncommon as people make it out to be. I think we totally overstate the idea that fertility declines in the late 30s, and so a lot of people think it's "unlikely" to get pregnant from one time when you are in your late 30s or early 40s, so they roll the dice and figure the odds are in their favor. It's just not very uncommon and we are doing people a disservice by overstating the fertility declines.
