Is it normall for a 40 y.o. woman to think she can still have kids?

That bitch!

Everyone knows that after the age of 40 is reached, people are supposed to pick a coffin and make their way towards the cemetery.

Why wouldn't a woman have her first child at forty or after?? There's no law against it and at forty most woman are still perfectly capable of bearing a child without fertility treatment. I thought that everybody knew that!

My Mom had her third at 43. No fertility treatments or drugs, none of that shit. Don't tell me that shit isn't possible and that women don't wait this long to have kids. Normal.

My friends mom didn't have her till she was 40, it is definitely possible. Plus she has twin younger siblings.

ummm why not?? My mom had me when she was 40 and my dad was 45.

Yes, it's possible. I'm my mother's 3rd child and she had me and my twin at 40.

Why not? Sure the risks are a little higher, but with today's technology, a 40 year old woman is still likely to have a perfectly healthy baby.

Um, no. Only if she has had problems with it. If it is from lack of opportunity it shouldn't be an issue as long as she hasn't hit menopause.

Is this the same 40 year old woman who can't cook?

I'm sure it's a natural urge, but she would do well to adopt, I think. Fertility treatments have the risk of ending up with sextuplets or something like that, which would be problematic for a woman in her 40s. And trying to conceive naturally at that age is just asking for Down Syndrome or something else.

A friend gave birth to a healthy boy at age 43 after a few miscarriages

Be healthy;both partners.

Try something like Elevit ask doctor/health food shop.

Good luck.

Yes! Speak with your doctor and made certain that you are healthy. Also, you may want to have an amniocentesis to make certain the baby is healthy.

Good luck!

a women can have kids at any age when they are old i have heard of one who was 80 years old and had her first kid and the kid was healthy like any other kid so the old ass ladies can still have kids not just a 40 year old.

Ermagud what have you done to her.

Actually, people are starting to have children later these days. I think it has something to do with people, who have lately, not even been settling down until later in their lives.

Theres nothing wrong with it. And before, they were saying that women who have babies when their older, risk having a baby with more health problems... but just recently, a study showed that researchers are now saying that isn't always the case, and that there wasn't enough women in the past who were having babies later in their lives to determine that study as being correct or not.

It wasn't too long ago when I saw on the news a lady who was pregnant in her 60's.

If you really want a baby right now, speak with your doctor to see if its possible.

Why don't you go to a doctor and get checked up to see if you're still okay to have children? Clock's ticking.

No, it could happen.

exactly that happened to friend of mine. A bit bonkers if you ask me.
