I am fortunate to have gotten pregnant at 46

I was lucky enough to get pregnant on my first try with IVF (actually our one and only chance as we only had three embryos and had run out of money!!!) My husband and I were over the moon as this is my husband's first (and probably last) baby - I have a 17 year old son from first marriage. I should think myself fortunate to have gotten pregnant at all at 46 - and I am really. There's not one day goes by that we don't thank God for that. I guess it's all the negative things that some people have said to me that I've taken to heart.

I went for my annual pap test the other day...and my dr. told me that he has a 47 year old woman that just gave birth to a baby boy. 10lbs! Her first! It was natural also!

I too am 46 and pregnant...my baby is not due until July...I'm just starting down this road again after 19 years. I have 3 boys...ages 24, 21 and 19. In fact, my 24 year old son is expecting his first child in May...his brother/sister will be younger than his own child. Oh lordy!!
