Any ladies have kids after 40?



Backstory

Looking for stories of moms who had kids after age 40. My guy and I are starting to plan for a few things and having a baby is on the table for us! More and more people are having kids later in life, so I'd love to hear from any of you who did!

I've worked for many ladies who had babies after 40. And I emphasize *many*

marymc says,

My 2 SIL's did. They're both 55, one with an 11 year old. The hubby and I were empty-nesters in our mid forties. I know they are jealous.

My mother had my little brother at the age of 42. Needless to say, it was not planned. Hey he was loved more than the rest of us believe me. She claims it kept her young.

Dragonflower says,

My mother was 42 when I was born. I think it is different today. Women seem younger at 42.

MsKillie says,

Thanks for sharing everyone! I think it will work out just fine since we have a few years to plan ahead. I'll also be chatting with my doctor about it in a few weeks, so we can prepare as much as possible for this one!

Good luck! I bet you'll be great.
